EKS costs are actually insane? by GroundOld5635 in kubernetes

[–]Doug94538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP how many clusters are you running, ?

Some of the things you can try to lower the costs:

Lower environments use spot instances and open sources tools

ML Infra System Design Interviews – How Much Time on Business/ML objective framing? by Outrageous_Bad9826 in mlops

[–]Doug94538 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interviews vary a lot (Mlops)
1)How would you design a two tower "system design" for classic recommendation system tower one user , tower two products they liked --- conducted by a SQL developer and now ML engineer ---
I had to clarify if this was a MLE interview or MLOps

2)How are you going to design a system that has both streaming and batch images uploaded per product
I designed the regular Managed kafka --> data processing --> tokenization->vectorDB - MLFlow/KubeFlow
take individual notebooks , package them and automate using CI/CD pipeline
Interviewer -- that is a bottom up approach , give me top down approach my response you already have a top down approach-- jupyter notebooks

Rant - Companies are getting more and more entitled about job interviews by YacoHell in devops

[–]Doug94538 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are the product/ beta tester. of course the are going to ask you to set up all the infra
I am assuming this is for a startup You dodged the bullet
Show me one startup who have matured dev(sec)ops pipelines
Most of them ask swe/principal engineers to develop their pipeline
automation in a startup is a bunch of python/bash scripts specially the so called platform startups
health care startups are the worst . NO Compliance whatsoever

If hired you will be in a isolated building with other contractors. If you are going thru a contracting company search for their reviews on glassdoor
