Book Description

Most companies today are incorporating AI/ML into their businesses. Building and running apps utilizing AI/ML effectively is tough. This book, authored by a principal architect with about two decades of industry experience, who has led cross-functional teams to design, plan, implement, and govern enterprise cloud strategies, shows you exactly how to design and run AI/ML workloads successfully using years of experience from some of the world’s leading tech companies.

You’ll get a clear understanding of essential fundamental AI/ML concepts, before moving on to complex topics with the help of examples and hands-on activities. This will help you explore advanced, cutting-edge AI/ML applications that address real-world use cases in today’s market. You’ll recognize the common challenges that companies face when implementing AI/ML workloads, and discover industry-proven best practices to overcome these. The chapters also teach you about the vast AI/ML landscape on Google Cloud and how to implement all the steps needed in a typical AI/ML project. You’ll use services such as BigQuery to prepare data; Vertex AI to train, deploy, monitor, and scale models in production; as well as MLOps to automate the entire process.

By the end of this book, you will be able to unlock the full potential of Google Cloud's AI/ML offerings.

What you will learn

• Build solutions with open-source offerings on Google Cloud, such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Spark
• Source, understand, and prepare data for ML workloads

Who this book is for

This book is for aspiring solutions architects looking to design and implement AI/ML solutions on Google Cloud. Although this book is suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners, basic knowledge of Python and ML concepts is required. The book focuses on how AI/ML is used in the real world on Google Cloud. It briefly covers the basics at the beginning to establish a baseline for you, but it does not go into depth on the underlying mathematical concepts that are readily available in academic material.
