The components of a data-driven machine learning system

The high-level components of our machine learning system are outlined in the following diagram. This diagram illustrates the machine learning pipeline from which we obtain data and in which we store data. We then transform it into a form that is usable as input to a machine learning model; train, test, and refine our model; and then, deploy the final model to our production system. The process is then repeated as new data is generated.

A general machine-learning pipeline

Data ingestion and storage

The first step in our machine learning pipeline will be taking in the data that we require for training our models. Like many other businesses, MovieStream's data is typically generated by user activity, other...
