Covers the full MLOps workflow: structuring a project with LightningDataModule and LightningModule, managing hyperparameters via Hydra YAML configs, training a DistilBERT sentiment classifier on the IMDB dataset, and running offline inference in multiple modes (single, batch, interactive, demo). Key MLOps principles emphasized include separation of concerns, deterministic reproducibility, distributed training readiness (DDP/FSDP), and config-driven experimentation without code changes. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
