Module 7: Packaging, environments, and deployment

AINS6007 — Applied AI Programming with Python

Essential Question

How do environments stay reproducible across machines?

Scenario

an engineering team converting prototype AI code into a maintainable application component

Stakeholders: software engineer, ML engineer, QA lead, product owner, and operations reviewer

Core Moves

• Define the decision boundary

• Compare baseline and alternative

• Interpret evidence and assumptions

• Identify failure modes

• Recommend next action

Lab & Assignment

Package dependencies and run a deployment smoke test.

Artifact: tested Python AI component with interface contract, CI evidence, and deployment notes focused on packaging, environments, and deployment: Package dependencies and run a deployment smoke test.
