In an earlier post, we had described the need for automating the Data Engineering pipeline for Machine Learning based systems. Today, we will expand the scope to setup a fully automated MLOps pipeline using Google Cloud Composer.
Cloud Composer
Cloud Composer is official defined as a fully managed workflow orchestration service that empowers you to author, schedule, and monitor pipelines that span across clouds and on-premises data centers. Built on the popular Apache Airflow open source project and operated using the Python programming language, Cloud Composer is free from lock-in and easy to use.
So let’s get on with the required steps to create this MLOps infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform
Creating a Cloud Composer Environment
Step1: Please enable the Cloud Composer API.
Step2: Go to create environment page in GCP console. Composer is available in Big Data section.
Step3: Click on create to start creating a Composer environment
Step4: Please select the Service account which has the required permissions to access GCS, Big Query, ML Engine and Composer environment. The required roles for accessing Composer environment is Composer Administrator and Composer Worker.
For more details about access control in Composer environment please see this.
Step5: Please use Python Version 3 and latest Image version.
Step6: Click on create. It will take about 15-20 minutes to create the environment. Once it completes, the environment page shall look like the following.
Click on Airflow to see Airflow WebUI. The Airflow WebUI looks as follows
DAGs folder is where our dag file is stored. DAG folder is nothing but a folder inside a GCS bucket which is created by the environment. To know more about the concept of DAG and general introduction to Airflow, please refer to this post.
You could see Composer related logs in Logging.
Step7: Please add the following PyPI packages in Composer environment.
Click on created environment and navigate to PYPI packages and click on edit to add packages
The required packages are:
# to read data from MongoDB
pymongo==3.8.0
oauth2client==4.1.3
# to read data from firestore
google-cloud-firestore==1.3.0
firebase-admin==2.17.0
google-api-core==1.13.0Create a ML model
Step1: Please create a folder structure like the following on your instance.
ml_model
├── setup.py
└── trainer
├── __init__.py
└── train.pyStep2: Please place the following code in train.py file, which shall upload the model to GCS bucket as shown below. This model would be used to create model versions as explained a bit later.
from google.cloud import bigquery
import pandas as pd
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
import numpy as np
from google.cloud import storage
import datetime
import json
import pickle
client = bigquery.Client()
sql = '''
SELECT *
FROM `<PROJECT_ID>.<DATASET>.<TABLENAME>`
'''
df = client.query(sql).to_dataframe()
df = df[['is_stressed', 'is_engaged', 'status']]
df['is_stressed'] = df['is_stressed'].fillna('n')
df['is_engaged'] = df['is_engaged'].fillna('n')
df['stressed'] = np.where(df['is_stressed']=='y', 1, 0)
df['engaged'] = np.where(df['is_engaged']=='y', 1, 0)
df['status'] = np.where(df['status']=='complete', 1, 0)
feature_cols = ['stressed', 'engaged']
X = df[feature_cols]
y = df.status
X_train,X_test,y_train,y_test=train_test_split(X,y,test_size=0.25,random_state=0)
logreg = LogisticRegression()
logreg.fit(X_train,y_train)
pkl_filename = "model.pkl"
with open(pkl_filename, 'wb') as file:
pickle.dump(logreg, file)
BUCKET_NAME=BUCKET_NAME# Upload the model to GCS
bucket = storage.Client().bucket(BUCKET_NAME)
file_path = datetime.datetime.now().strftime('machine_learning/models/%Y%m%d_%H%M%S')
blob = bucket.blob('{}/{}'.format(
file_path,
pkl_filename))
blob.upload_from_filename(pkl_filename)
file_location = 'gs://{BUCKET_NAME}/{file_path}'.format(BUCKET_NAME=BUCKET_NAME, file_path=file_path)
file_config = json.dumps({'file_location': file_location})
bucket = storage.Client().bucket(COMPOSER_BUCKET)
blob = bucket.blob('data/file_config.json')
blob.upload_from_string(file_config)Step3: Create an empty init.py file inside the trainer directory.
Step4: Please place the following code in setup.py file. The setup.py file contains required packages to execute code.
import setuptools
REQUIRED_PACKAGES = [
'pandas-gbq==0.3.0',
'cloudml-hypertune',
'google-cloud-bigquery==1.14.0',
'urllib3'
]
setuptools.setup(
name='ml_model',
version='1.0',
install_requires=REQUIRED_PACKAGES,
packages=setuptools.find_packages(),
include_package_data=True,
description='',
)Step5: Packaging the code using the following command. It creates a gz file inside ml_model directory.
python3 setup.py sdistStep6: The package name is the name that is specified in setup.py file. The package name becomes ml_model-1.0.tar.gz
Copy the package to gs://{your-GCS-bucket}/machine_learning/. This becomes the base directory for your machine learning activities described in this post.
Creating a DAG
In this use case, we have created a DAG file which exports some table data from a MongoDB instance into a GCS bucket and then creates a BigQuery table off of that exported data. It trains a model and creates version for that model. The DAG file supports full data extraction and daily data extraction explained in the code below using a variable tot_data. This variable is extracted from Airflow configurations set by the user. This process is also described later in this post.
Please place the following code in the DAG file.
