Continuous monitoring and maintenance
Continuous monitoring and maintenance are pivotal practices in the life cycle of deploying LLMs. We will cover the specifics of these practices next.
Continuous monitoring
To ensure the effective operation of LLMs, monitor critical performance metrics such as model accuracy, response time, and error rates. System health should also be tracked, focusing on resource utilization, network performance, and service availability. Let’s review them further:
- Performance metrics:
- Accuracy: Regularly measure the model’s prediction accuracy to ensure it is within acceptable thresholds for its intended application
- Response time: Monitor the latency from when a request is made to the model to when a response is received, as excessive delays can impact user experience
- Error rates: Track the rate of errors or unexpected outputs, which can signal issues with the model itself or the data it is processing
- System health monitoring:
- Resource...
