Description: Model versioning is an essential practice in the MLOps field that focuses on managing and tracking different versions of machine learning models. This practice allows development and operations teams to maintain a clear record of variations in models, facilitating the identification of improvements, comparison of results, and implementation of changes. Similar to software development, where version control systems are used to manage code, model versioning provides a structured framework for handling different iterations of machine learning models. This includes not only the model code but also training data, hyperparameters, and performance metrics. The ability to revert to previous versions or compare different approaches is crucial for reproducibility and transparency in model development, which in turn contributes to trust in AI-based decisions. In a general technology context, model versioning also helps meet regulatory and quality standards, ensuring that every model used in production is properly documented and validated.
