ML System Design: Building Smart, Scalable and Reliable Systems

When we say ML System Design, we’re talking about more than just training and deploying a model. It's the complete process of conceiving, engineering, and operating a system that leverages machine learning to deliver real-world value. In other words, machine learning system design is about turning models into functional, reliable components that serve users under real-world constraints. According to a report by Algorithmia, more than 55% of organizations take over a month to deploy an ML model , and over 40% of models never make it into production . Moreover, once deployed, ML models can degrade by as much as 10–20% in performance over six months if not properly monitored and maintained. From data ingestion to monitoring deployed models, every step matters. This blog walks you through the ML life cycle, ML model lifecycle, ML system architecture, approaches used in industry, how to measure success, and how to decide if outcomes are correct.   2.
