MLflow VS dagster

MLflow is an open-source platform for managing the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle. It includes features for experiment tracking, model versioning, and deployment, enabling developers to track and compare experiments, package models into reproducible runs, and manage model deployment across multiple environments.

Platforms such as MLflow monitor the development stages of machine learning models. In parallel, Data Version Control (DVC) brings version control system-like functions to the realm of data sets and models.

MLflow:

In search for a tool that needs comparable configuration I looked into mlflow and found this. https://github.com/mlflow/mlflow/blob/master/mlflow/environment_variables.py There they define a class _EnvironmentVariable and create many objects out of it, for any variable they need. The get method of this class is in principle a decorated os.getenv. Maybe that is something I can take as orientation.

I have been using DVC and MLflow since then DVC had only data tracking and MLflow only model tracking. I can say both are awesome now and maybe the only factor I would like to mention is that IMO, MLflow is a bit harder to learn while DVC is just a git practically.

Hi, you should have a look at ML flow https://mlflow.org or weight and biases https://wandb.ai/site

My recommendation is to continue on with the tutorial, then look at one of the larger example projects especially the ones named “project_”, and you should understand most of it. Of what you don't understand and you're curious about, look into the relevant concept page for the functions in the docs.

I found this example that helped me - https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/tree/master/examples/project_fully_featured/project_fully_featured

I would recommend the following: - https://www.mage.ai/ - https://dagster.io/ - https://www.prefect.io/ - https://metaflow.org/ - https://zenml.io/home

In Helm terms: there are 2 charts, namely the system: dagster/dagster (values.yaml), and the user code: dagster/dagster-user-deployments (values.yaml). Note that you have to set dagster-user-deployments.enabled: true in the dagster/dagster values-yaml to enable this.

Dagster seemed really cool when I looked into it as an alternative to airflow. I especially like the software defined assets and built-in lineage which I haven't seen in any other tool. However it seems it does not support RBAC which is a pretty big issue if you want a self-service type of architecture, see https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/issues/2219. It does seem like it's available in their hosted version, but I wanted to run it myself on k8s.

Dagster? https://dagster.io

One that I haven't seen on here yet: dagster
