Productionizing your Machine Learning model

Even though pushing your Machine Learning model to production is one of the most important steps of building a Machine Learning application there aren't many tutorials out there showing how to do so. Therefore in this article, I will go over how to productionize a Ludwig model by building a Rest-API as well as a normal website using the Flask web micro-framework. The same process can be applied to almost any other machine learning framework with only a few little changes. Both the website and RESTful-API we will build in this article are very simple and won't scale very well. Therefore in the next article, we will take a look at how to scale our Flask website to handle multiple recurrent requests, which is also shown in this excellent article.
