Design an End-to-End ML Pipeline Orchestration Platform — System Design Interview Practice

Design a platform that orchestrates end-to-end ML workflows from data ingestion through model deployment, with DAG-based pipeline definitions, caching, and reproducibility guarantees. Work through the requirements, architecture trade-offs, and an interactive design review.

Requirements and concepts to consider

  • Define ML pipelines as DAGsRequirement
  • Orchestrate data processing, training, and evaluation stepsRequirement
  • Cache intermediate pipeline artifactsRequirement
  • Support pipeline parameterization and schedulingRequirement
  • Track pipeline runs with lineage metadataRequirement
  • Handle pipeline failures with retry and alertingRequirement
  • Support distributed execution across compute backendsRequirement
  • Integrate with version control for pipeline definitionsRequirement
