Is there life after deployment?

Congratulations! Your machine learning model is now live. Many models never make it that far. Some claim, as much as 87% are never deployed. Given how hard it is to get from a concept to a working application, the celebration is well deserved.

It might feel like a final step.

Indeed, even the design of machine learning courses and the landscape of machine learning tools add to this perception. They extensively address data preparation, iterative model building, and (most recently) the deployment phase. Still, both in tutorials and practice, what happens after the model goes into production is often left up to chance.
