Azure AI Studio vs. Pytorch vs. Theano

I am deploying a lot of pipelines and making a lot of variants of these pipeline segments, like different types of vector search techniques. The simple way to mix and fix these segments to run the whole pipelines in notebooks options are big overhead killer. The playground which provides a test sandbox helps a lot to evaluate LMs if they are the best fit for our use-case even before deploying and startup with the costing angle.

They have created Pytorch Lightening on top of Pytorch to make the life of Data Scientists easy so that they can use complex models they need with just a few lines of code, so it's becoming popular. As compared to TensorFlow(Keras), where we can create custom neural networks by just adding layers, it's slightly complicated in Pytorch.

• Wide Catalog of Models is a beautiful feature for all who want to evaluate a lot of models before proceeding with any client use case for the best performance.
• Playground for testing and evaluating visual comparisons on so many metrics like latency, cost, and output time.
• Integration with other Cloud services, this makes the full complete solutioning and vision complete, from storage to compute.

• flexibility
• Clean code, close to the algorithm.
• Fast
• Handles GPUs, multiple GPUs on a single machine, CPUs, and Mac.
• Versatile, can work efficiently on text/audio/image/tabular datasets.

• Model Catalog can have a feature to show basic compute and the cost of running the model on that compute. With latency metrics, I generally need to do a lot of research before losing some dollars on deployment on hit and trials.
• Documentation generator for pipelines deployed in notebooks, generally developers use notebooks for experimentation, where logging them can be a big overhead.

• Since pythonic if developing an app with pytorch as backend the response can be substantially slow and support is less compares to Tensorflow

Microsoft Foundry includes the existing AI Services. It's quite literally Cognitive Services under the hood, so in that sense, if you're building a new "AI app" today where you would have deployed an AI Services Account, you can deploy Microsoft Foundry instead. The side benefit of that is that Foundry also includes model deployments, and more than just the OpenAI models. So, it removes the need for deploying a separate Azure OpenAI Service in some circumstances. Then finally it has agent capabilities too. So, if you're developing and deploying agents as part of your solution (which usually interface with a model) then you can do that from there as well. Effectively it's meant to be a one-stop-shop for all things AI, just like Fabric is for data.

The big advantage of PyTorch is how close it is to the algorithm. Oftentimes, it is easier to read Pytorch code than a given paper directly. I particularly like the object-oriented approach in model definition; it makes things very clean and easy to teach to software engineers.

Azure AI Studio were the pioneers of DevOPs, so MLOPs feels quite a bit better on this platform than Google. Azure brought OpenAI into the system which made the Organization to shift from any other platform to Azure AI Studio.

Pytorch is very, very simple compared to TensorFlow. Simple to install, less dependency issues, and very small learning curve. TensorFlow is very much optimised for robust deployment but very complicated to train simple models and play around with the loss functions. It needs a lot of juggling around with the documentation. The research community also prefers PyTorch, so it becomes easy to find solutions to most of the problems. Keras is very simple and good for learning ML / DL. But when going deep into research or building some product that requires a lot of tweaks and experimentation, Keras is not suitable for that. May be good for proving some hypotheses but not good for rigorous experimentation with complex models.

• Onboarding a team member for the codebase is slightly slower, almost 20% slower. As codebase sharing is like a git pull from repos, whereas here we need to provide all the access.
• I have experienced scaling up speed almost 50% faster as per compared with on-prem solutions. ML models are faster deployed in terms of on-prem deployments.
• 10 times better Azure AI Studio for cost visibility over any other solution.

• The ability to make models as never before
• Being able to control the bias of models was not done before the arrival of Pytorch in our company
