Databricks Core Workflow B: MLflow Training & Serving
Overview
Full ML lifecycle on Databricks: Feature Engineering Client for discoverable features, MLflow experiment tracking with auto-logging, Unity Catalog model registry with aliases (champion/challenger), and Mosaic AI Model Serving endpoints for real-time inference via REST API.
Prerequisites
Completed databricks-install-auth and databricks-core-workflow-a
databricks-sdk, mlflow, scikit-learn installed
Unity Catalog enabled (required for model registry)
Instructions
Step 1: Feature Engineering with Feature Store
Create a feature table in Unity Catalog so features are discoverable and reusable.
from databricks.feature_engineering import FeatureEngineeringClient
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
import pyspark.sql.functions as F
spark = SparkSession.builder.getOrCreate()
fe = FeatureEngineeringClient()
# Build features from gold layer tables
user_features = (
spark.table("prod_catalog.gold.user_events")
.groupBy("user_id")
.agg(
F.count("event_id").alias("total_events"),
F.avg("session_duration_sec").alias("avg_session_sec"),
F.max("event_timestamp").alias("last_active"),
F.countDistinct("event_type").alias("unique_event_types"),
F.datediff(F.current_date(), F.max("event_timestamp")).alias("days_since_last_active"),
)
)
# Register as a feature table (creates or updates)
fe.create_table(
name="prod_catalog.ml_features.user_behavior",
primary_keys=["user_id"],
df=user_features,
description="User behavioral features for churn prediction",
)
Step 2: MLflow Experiment Tracking
import mlflow
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.ensemble import GradientBoostingClassifier
from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score, precision_score, recall_score, f1_score
# Point MLflow to Databricks tracking server
mlflow.set_tracking_uri("databricks")
mlflow.set_experiment("/Users/team@company.com/churn-prediction")
# Load features
features_df = spark.table("prod_catalog.ml_features.user_behavior").toPandas()
X = features_df.drop(columns=["user_id", "churned"])
y = features_df["churned"]
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
# Train with experiment trackingwith mlflow.start_run(run_name="gbm-baseline") as run:
params = {"n_estimators": 200, "max_depth": 5, "learning_rate": 0.1}
mlflow.log_params(params)
model = GradientBoostingClassifier(**params)
model.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_pred = model.predict(X_test)
metrics = {
"accuracy": accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred),
"precision": precision_score(y_test, y_pred),
"recall": recall_score(y_test, y_pred),
"f1": f1_score(y_test, y_pred),
}
mlflow.log_metrics(metrics)
# Log model with signature for serving validation
mlflow.sklearn.log_model(
model,
artifact_path="model",
input_example=X_test.iloc[:5],
registered_model_name="prod_catalog.ml_models.churn_predictor",
)
print(f"Run {run.info.run_id}: accuracy={metrics['accuracy']:.3f}")
Step 3: Model Registry with Aliases
Unity Catalog model registry replaces legacy stages with aliases (champion, challenger).
from mlflow import MlflowClient
client = MlflowClient()
model_name = "prod_catalog.ml_models.churn_predictor"# List versionsfor mv in client.search_model_versions(f"name='{model_name}'"):
print(f"v{mv.version}: status={mv.status}, aliases={mv.aliases}")
# Promote best version to champion
client.set_registered_model_alias(model_name, alias="champion", version="3")
# Load model by alias in downstream code
champion = mlflow.pyfunc.load_model(f"models:/{model_name}@champion")
predictions = champion.predict(X_test)
Step 4: Deploy Model Serving Endpoint
Mosaic AI Model Serving creates a REST API endpoint with auto-scaling.
from databricks.sdk import WorkspaceClient
from databricks.sdk.service.serving import (
EndpointCoreConfigInput, ServedEntityInput,
)
w = WorkspaceClient()
# Create or update a serving endpoint
endpoint = w.serving_endpoints.create_and_wait(
name="churn-predictor-prod",
config=EndpointCoreConfigInput(
served_entities=[
ServedEntityInput(
entity_name="prod_catalog.ml_models.churn_predictor",
entity_version="3",
workload_size="Small",
scale_to_zero_enabled=True,
)
]
),
)
print(f"Endpoint ready: {endpoint.name} ({endpoint.state.ready})")
