Democratizing Machine Learning at Netflix: Building the Model Lifecycle Graph
Netflix TechBlog · AI & Machine Learning
MDS is optimized for real-time ingestion of ML metadata (e.g., models, features, pipelines, experiments, datasets) and to answer cross-domain questions such as “Which experiments are running this model?” or “Which models share these features?” It is the foundation that enables discovery, ingesting events from diverse sources, enriching them with context, and materializing relationships across entities.Our vision: to make every ML asset at Netflix discoverable, understandable, and reusable by every ML practitioner, regardless of their team or domain.Core Abstractions: The Vocabulary of the SystemBefore diving into the technical implementation, it’s helpful to understand the conceptual model that underpins MDS If a new model registry were introduced, it could be added as an additional provider without changing the domain interface.We can summarize these concepts with a concrete example:This URI-based addressing scheme is crucial as it allows any service to reference any ML asset with a single string, and MDS can resolve that reference back to rich, connected metadata.From Events to Entities to GraphThe journey from raw system events to a queryable graph happens in stages Now it’s a contiguous journey in a single interface.This graph-based exploration answers questions that were previously impossible:Lineage queries: What is the complete lineage of this model, from training data to production experiments?Impact analysis: Which models will be affected if I change this feature?Usage discovery: Which A/B tests are using this model?Dependency mapping: What data sources does my pipeline transitively depend on?Deprecation planning: Which entities are no longer being used and can be retired?Every entity has deep context: its creation time, ownership, update history, and most importantly, its relationships to other entities.The Model Lifecycle Graph is surfaced to practitioners through the AIP Portal, a unified interface that provides full-text search across all entity types, detailed entity pages with navigable relationships, and personalized views for teams and individuals.A typical interaction in the AIP Portal looks like:Search: Type a model, feature, dataset, or team name into the single search box backed by Elasticsearch.Inspect: Land on an entity page that shows key metadata (description, owners, domains, tags) alongside a relationships panel.Explore: Click through to related entities (upstream datasets, downstream experiments, and sibling model versions) to navigate the Model Lifecycle Graph without leaving the portal.When new entity types are introduced into MDS, the portal automatically provides baseline search, entity pages, and relationship navigation, and we can then layer on domain-specific visualizations (such as model deployment history or dataset version timelines) over time.The Road Ahead: Open ChallengesBuilding the ML lifecycle graph is an ongoing journey

Migrating Data Ingestion Systems at Meta Scale
Meta Engineering · Infrastructure & Scale
Meta’s data ingestion system, which our engineering teams leverage for up-to-date snapshots of the social graph, has recently undergone a significant revamp to enhance its reliability at scale Moving from our legacy system to our new architecture required a large-scale migration of our entire data ingestion system The post Migrating Data Ingestion Systems at Meta Scale appeared first on Engineering at Meta.
