A checklist for turning a notebook into a service
After the third notebook-to-service conversion, I wrote a checklist. It's not clever, but it saves days.
- Pin the environment (requirements + Dockerfile)
- One entrypoint function:
load_model()+predict() - Golden input/output test
- Health endpoint that also checks model version
- Structured logs with request id and model version
- A fallback path when the model fails to load
The last one is the one people forget. A service that crashes at startup is worse than a service that degrades.
Side quest: learning Kotlin Multiplatform, because I keep ending up on teams that need a mobile client for their model.
