Background

MLOps & LLMOps for Production AI

Monitor, version, and optimize LLM applications in production with MLflow, Weights & Biases, LangSmith, and custom observability pipelines.

MLOps & LLMOps Capabilities

Model Monitoring & Observability

Track model performance, token usage, latency, and quality metrics in production with real-time alerting for regressions and anomalies.

Experiment Tracking & Versioning

Version prompts, model configurations, and evaluation datasets with reproducible experiment tracking for A/B testing and rollback.

Drift Detection & Quality Assurance

Monitor for prompt drift, embedding drift, and output quality degradation with automated retraining triggers and regression testing.

Cost Optimization & Resource Management

Track API costs, optimize token usage, cache responses, and implement request throttling to control LLM infrastructure spend.

Our Three-Layer Approach to MLOps

1

Advisory & Governance

MLOps strategy, tooling selection, and monitoring framework design for LLM applications.

  • • MLOps platform selection (MLflow, W&B, LangSmith, custom)
  • • KPI definition for LLM quality (accuracy, relevance, safety)
  • • Model governance policies and approval workflows
  • • Prompt versioning and change management strategy
  • • Cost monitoring and budget alert configuration

Example Deliverable:

LLMOps governance framework with monitoring KPIs and alerting policies

2

Build & Integrate

Production-grade observability, logging, and evaluation pipelines for LLM applications.

  • • LangSmith tracing integration for agent debugging
  • • MLflow experiment tracking for prompt A/B tests
  • • Custom metrics dashboards (Grafana, Datadog, CloudWatch)
  • • Automated evaluation pipelines with golden datasets
  • • Cost tracking per user, endpoint, or business unit

Example Deliverable:

LangSmith observability stack with custom quality metrics and cost dashboards

3

Operate & Scale

Continuous improvement, automated retraining, and production incident response for LLM systems.

  • • Real-time alerting for quality regressions and cost spikes
  • • Automated prompt optimization based on production feedback
  • • Shadow deployments and canary releases for new prompts
  • • Incident response playbooks for model failures
  • • Periodic retraining with fresh production data

Example Deliverable:

Automated monitoring with PagerDuty alerts and incident response runbooks

LLMOps vs Traditional MLOps

LLM applications require unique monitoring and governance approaches:

Traditional MLOps

  • • Model retraining on schedule
  • • Structured input/output validation
  • • Prediction accuracy & F1 scores
  • • Feature drift monitoring
  • • Batch inference pipelines

LLMOps

  • • Prompt versioning & A/B testing
  • • Unstructured text quality evaluation
  • • Relevance, safety, & hallucination scoring
  • • Embedding drift & semantic shift
  • • Real-time streaming & agent workflows
