CLI (v2) batch deployment YAML schema

  • Статия

APPLIES TO: Azure CLI ml extension v2 (current)

The source JSON schema can be found at https://azuremlschemas.azureedge.net/latest/batchDeployment.schema.json.

Note

The YAML syntax detailed in this document is based on the JSON schema for the latest version of the ML CLI v2 extension. This syntax is guaranteed only to work with the latest version of the ML CLI v2 extension. You can find the schemas for older extension versions at https://azuremlschemasprod.azureedge.net/.

YAML syntax

Key Type Description Allowed values Default value
$schema string The YAML schema. If you use the Azure Machine Learning VS Code extension to author the YAML file, including $schema at the top of your file enables you to invoke schema and resource completions.
name string Required. Name of the deployment.
description string Description of the deployment.
tags object Dictionary of tags for the deployment.
endpoint_name string Required. Name of the endpoint to create the deployment under.
type string Required. Type of the bath deployment. Use model for model deployments and pipeline for pipeline component deployments.

New in version 1.7.		 model, pipeline model
settings object Configuration of the deployment. See specific YAML reference for model and pipeline component for allowed values.

New in version 1.7.

Tip

The key type has been introduced in version 1.7 of the CLI extension and above. To fully support backward compatibility, this property defaults to model. However, if not explicitly indicated, the key settings is not enforced and all the properties for the model deployment settings should be indicated in to root of the YAML specification.

YAML syntax for model deployments

When type: model, the following syntax is enforced:

Key Type Description Allowed values Default value
model string or object Required. The model to use for the deployment. This value can be either a reference to an existing versioned model in the workspace or an inline model specification.

To reference an existing model, use the azureml:<model-name>:<version> syntax.

To define a model inline, follow the Model schema.

As a best practice for production scenarios, you should create the model separately and reference it here.
code_configuration object Configuration for the scoring code logic.

This property is not required if your model is in MLflow format.
code_configuration.code string The local directory that contains all the Python source code to score the model.
code_configuration.scoring_script string The Python file in the above directory. This file must have an init() function and a run() function. Use the init() function for any costly or common preparation (for example, load the model in memory). init() is called only once at beginning of process. Use run(mini_batch) to score each entry; the value of mini_batch is a list of file paths. The run() function should return a pandas DataFrame or an array. Each returned element indicates one successful run of input element in the mini_batch. For more information on how to author scoring script, see Understanding the scoring script.
environment string or object The environment to use for the deployment. This value can be either a reference to an existing versioned environment in the workspace or an inline environment specification.

This property is not required if your model is in MLflow format.

To reference an existing environment, use the azureml:<environment-name>:<environment-version> syntax.

To define an environment inline, follow the Environment schema.

As a best practice for production scenarios, you should create the environment separately and reference it here.
compute string Required. Name of the compute target to execute the batch scoring jobs on. This value should be a reference to an existing compute in the workspace using the azureml:<compute-name> syntax.
resources.instance_count integer The number of nodes to use for each batch scoring job. 1
settings object Specific configuration of the model deployment.

Changed in version 1.7.
settings.max_concurrency_per_instance integer The maximum number of parallel scoring_script runs per instance. 1
settings.error_threshold integer The number of file failures that should be ignored. If the error count for the entire input goes above this value, the batch scoring job is terminated. error_threshold is for the entire input and not for individual mini batches. If omitted, any number of file failures is allowed without terminating the job. -1
settings.logging_level string The log verbosity level. warning, info, debug info
settings.mini_batch_size integer The number of files the code_configuration.scoring_script can process in one run() call. 10
settings.retry_settings object Retry settings for scoring each mini batch.
settings.retry_settings.max_retries integer The maximum number of retries for a failed or timed-out mini batch. 3
settings.retry_settings.timeout integer The timeout in seconds for scoring a single mini batch. Use larger values when the mini-batch size is bigger or the model is more expensive to run. 30
settings.output_action string Indicates how the output should be organized in the output file. Use summary_only if you are generating the output files as indicated at Customize outputs in model deployments. Use append_row if you are returning predictions as part of the run() function return statement. append_row, summary_only append_row
settings.output_file_name string Name of the batch scoring output file. predictions.csv
settings.environment_variables object Dictionary of environment variable key-value pairs to set for each batch scoring job.

YAML syntax for pipeline component deployments

When type: pipeline, the following syntax is enforced:

Key Type Description Allowed values Default value
component string or object Required. The pipeline component used for the deployment. This value can be either a reference to an existing versioned pipeline component in the workspace or in a registry, or an inline pipeline specification.

To reference an existing component, use the azureml:<component-name>:<version> syntax.

To define a pipeline component inline, follow the Pipeline component schema.

As a best practice for production scenarios, you should create the component separately and reference it here.

New in version 1.7.
settings object Default settings for the pipeline job. See Attributes of the settings key for the set of configurable properties.

New in version 1.7.

Remarks

The az ml batch-deployment commands can be used for managing Azure Machine Learning batch deployments.

Examples

Examples are available in the examples GitHub repository. Some of them are referenced below:

YAML: MLflow model deployment

A model deployment containing an MLflow model, which doesn't require to indicate code_configuration or environment:

$schema: https://azuremlschemas.azureedge.net/latest/modelBatchDeployment.schema.json
endpoint_name: heart-classifier-batch
name: classifier-xgboost-mlflow
description: A heart condition classifier based on XGBoost
type: model
model: azureml:heart-classifier-mlflow@latest
compute: azureml:batch-cluster
resources:
  instance_count: 2
settings:
  max_concurrency_per_instance: 2
  mini_batch_size: 2
  output_action: append_row
  output_file_name: predictions.csv
  retry_settings:
    max_retries: 3
    timeout: 300
  error_threshold: -1
  logging_level: info

YAML: Custom model deployment with scoring script

A model deployment indicating the scoring script to use and the environment:

$schema: https://azuremlschemas.azureedge.net/latest/modelBatchDeployment.schema.json
name: mnist-torch-dpl
description: A deployment using Torch to solve the MNIST classification dataset.
endpoint_name: mnist-batch

YAML: Legacy model deployments

If the attribute type is not indicated in the YAML, then a model deployment is inferred. However, the key settings will not be available and the properties should be placed in the root of the YAML as indicated in this example. It's strongly advisable to always specify the property type.

$schema: https://azuremlschemas.azureedge.net/latest/batchDeployment.schema.json
endpoint_name: heart-classifier-batch
name: classifier-xgboost-mlflow
description: A heart condition classifier based on XGBoost
model: azureml:heart-classifier-mlflow@latest
compute: azureml:batch-cluster
resources:
  instance_count: 2
max_concurrency_per_instance: 2
mini_batch_size: 2
output_action: append_row
output_file_name: predictions.csv
retry_settings:
  max_retries: 3
  timeout: 300
error_threshold: -1
logging_level: info

YAML: Pipeline component deployment

A simple pipeline component deployment:

$schema: https://azuremlschemas.azureedge.net/latest/pipelineComponentBatchDeployment.schema.json
name: hello-batch-dpl
endpoint_name: hello-pipeline-batch
type: pipeline
component: azureml:hello_batch@latest
settings:
    default_compute: batch-cluster
