Designing Deep Learning Systems: A software engineer's guide
A vital guide to building the platforms and systems that bring deep learning models to production.
In Designing Deep Learning Systems you will learn how
Deep learning systems are the components and infrastructure essential to supporting a deep learning model in a production environment. Written especially for software engineers with minimal knowledge of deep learning’s design requirements, Designing Deep Learning Systems is full of hands-on examples that will help you transfer your software development skills to creating these deep learning platforms. You’ll learn how to build automated and scalable services for core tasks like dataset management, model training/serving, and hyperparameter tuning. This book is the perfect way to step into an exciting—and lucrative—career as a deep learning engineer.
Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
About the technology
To be practically usable, a deep learning model must be built into a software platform. As a software engineer, you need a deep understanding of deep learning to create such a system. Th is book gives you that depth.
About the book
Designing Deep Learning A software engineer's guide teaches you everything you need to design and implement a production-ready deep learning platform. First, it presents the big picture of a deep learning system from the developer’s perspective, including its major components and how they are connected. Then, it carefully guides you through the engineering methods you’ll need to build your own maintainable, efficient, and scalable deep learning platforms.

As a software architect venturing into deep learning, I found this book extremely helpful. It takes you from understanding the grand scheme of deep learning systems to the specifics of building your own. The book doesn't shy away from complexities but presents them in a digestible manner. It's definitely more suited to those with some prior understanding of deep learning. Overall, it's been instrumental in aiding my transition from theory to practical application. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to do the same.

I recommend DL researchers to read this book to understand requirements of a production ready product from an engineering stand point. Furthermore, for engineers and MLOPs teams, it's a nice introduction to best practices.
