Real-time Model Oversight: Amazon SageMaker vs Databricks ML Monitoring Features

Model monitoring is crucial in the lifecycle of machine learning models, especially for models deployed in production environments. Model monitoring is not just a "nice-to-have" but is essential to ensure the models' robustness, accuracy, fairness, and reliability in real-world applications. Without monitoring, model predictions can be unreliable, or even detrimental to the business or end-users. As a model builder, how often have you thought about how models’ behavior will change over time? In my professional life, I have seen many production systems managing model retraining life cycle using heuristic, gut feel or scheduled basis, either leading to the wastage of precious resources or performing retraining too late.

This is a ripe problem space as many models have been deployed in production. Hence there are many point solutions such as Great Expectations, Neptune.ai, Fiddler.ai who all boast really cool features either in terms of automatic metrics computation, differentiated statistical methods or Responsible AI hype that has become a real need of time (Thanks to ChatGPT and LLMs). In this Op-ed, I would like to touch upon two systems that I am familiar with and are widely used.

Amazon SageMaker Model Monitor

Amazon SageMaker is AWS’s flagship fully managed ML service to Build, Train, Deploy & “Monitor” Machine Learning models. The service provides click through experience for set up using SageMaker Studio or API experience using SageMaker SDK. SageMaker assumes you to have clean datasets for training and can capture inference request/response based on user defined time interval. The system works for model monitoring if models are the problem, BUT What if Data that is fed to the model is a problem or a pipeline well upstream in ETL pipeline is a problem. AWS provides multiple Data Lake architectures and patterns to stitch end-2-end data and AI systems together but tracking data lineage is easy if not impossible.

The monitoring solution is flexible thanks to SageMaker processing job which is underlying mechanism to execute underlying metrics. SageMaker processing also lets you build your custom container. SageMaker model monitoring is integrated with Amazon SageMaker Clarify and can provide Bias Drift which is important for Responsible AI. Overall SageMaker monitoring does a decent job of alerting when model drifts.

Databricks Lakehouse Monitoring

Let's look at the second contender. Databricks is a fully managed Data and AI platform available across all major clouds and also boasts millions of downloads of MLFlow OSS. I have recently come across Databricks Lakehouse Monitoring which IMO is a really cool paradigm of Monitoring your Data assets.

Let me explain why you should care if you are an ML Engineer or Data Scientist?

Let's say you have built a cool customer segmentation model and deployed it in production. You have started monitoring the model using one of the cool bespoke tools I mentioned earlier which may pop up an alert blaming a Data field. Now What?

✔ How do you track where that field came from cobweb of data ETL pipeline?

✔ How do you find the root cause of the drift?

✔ How do you track where that field came from cobweb of data ETL pipeline?

Here comes Databricks Lakehouse Monitoring to the rescue. Databricks Lakehouse Monitoring lets you monitor all of the tables in your account. You can also use it to track the performance of machine learning models and model-serving endpoints by monitoring inference tables created by the model’s output.

Let's put this in perspective, Data Layer is a foundation of AI. When teams across data and AI portfolios work together in a single platform, productivity of ML Teams, Access to Data assets and Governance is much superior compared to siloed or point solution.

The Vision below essentially captures an ideal Data and Model Monitoring solution. The journey starts with raw data with Bronze -> Silver -> Golden layers. Moreover, Features are also treated as another table (That’s refreshing and new paradigm, Goodbye feature stores). Now you get down to ML brass tacks by using Golden/Feature Tables for Model training and serve that model up.

Databricks recently launched in preview awesome Inference table feature. Imagine all your requests/responses captured as a table than raw files in your object store. Possibilities are limitless if the Table can scale. Once you have ground truth after the fact, just start logging it in Groundtruth Table. Since all this data is being ETLed using Databricks components, the Unity catalog offers nice end-2-end data lineage similar to Delta Live Tables.

Now you can turn on Monitors, and Databricks start computing metrics. Any Data Drift or Model Drift can be root caused to upstream ETL tables or source code. Imagine that you love other tools in the market for monitoring, then just have them crawl these tables and get your own insights.

Looks like Databricks want to take it up the notch by extending Expectations framework in DLT to extend to any Delta Table. Imagine the ability to set up column level constraints and instructing jobs to fail, rollback or default. So, it means problems can be pre-empted before they happen. Can't wait to see this evolution in the next few months.

To summarize, I came up with the following comparison between SageMaker and Databricks Model Monitoring.CapabilityWinnerSageMakerDatabricksRoot cause AnalysisDatabricksConstraint and violations due to concept and model driftExtends RCA to upstream ETL pipelines as lineage is maintainedBuilt-in statisticsSageMakerUses Deque Spark library and SageMaker Clarify for Bias driftUnderlying metrics library is not exposed but most likely Spark libraryDashboardingDatabricksAvailable using SageMaker Studio so it is a mustRedash dashboards are built and can be customized or use your favorite BI tool.AlertingDatabricksNeeds additional configuration using Event BridgeBuilt in alertingCustomizabilityBothUses Processing jobs so customization of your own metricsMost metrics are built-in, but dashboards can be customizedUse case coverageSageMakerCoverage for Tabular and NLP use casesCoverage for tabular use casesEase of UseDatabricksOne-click enablementOne-click enablement but bonus for monitoring upstream ETL tables

Hope you enjoyed the quick read. Hope you can engage Propensity Labs for your next Machine Learning project no matter how hard the problem is, we have a solution. Keep monitoring.

Tech conferences are not for me.

For the last two days I've been helping to run a demo booth for my company at the Databricks summit and while I really enjoy the customer interaction and demoing and learning from my peers, the sheer quantity of stimulus from 8am to 8pm is breaking my brain.

On the expo floor they play club remixes of popular songs at high volume all day, so your baseline is shouting. And then you have thousands of people all shouting over each other on top of that. And the overhead lights are hella bright and most of the booths have LED lights and all the monitors are glaring to the point that I feel like the lights all have sounds too.

Tonight I got back to my hotel room with my takeaway dinner and I was so relieved to be in a quiet place I literally started crying. I hadn't eaten since breakfast because there weren't GF lunch options, though, so I didn't stop eating my tofu and rice noodles. I was just ugly sobbing while trying to stuff my face.

And what's wild is that most of my coworkers were headed to dinner together at a bar/restaurant AFTER scream-talking for 10 hours that day.

Like, sure my brain isn't normal but I feel like that's an excessive amount of socializing even for neurotypical people.

Anyway, me and my vendor swag homies are going to watch some HGTV and go to sleep early because we've got to do it all over again tomorrow.

Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has plans to stage a “hackathon” next week in Washington, DC. The goal is to create a single “mega API”—a bridge that lets software systems talk to one another—for accessing IRS data, sources tell WIRED. The agency is expected to partner with a third-party vendor to manage certain aspects of the data project. Palantir, a software company cofounded by billionaire and Musk associate Peter Thiel, has been brought up consistently by DOGE representatives as a possible candidate, sources tell WIRED.

Two top DOGE operatives at the IRS, Sam Corcos and Gavin Kliger, are helping to orchestrate the hackathon, sources tell WIRED. Corcos is a health-tech CEO with ties to Musk’s SpaceX. Kliger attended UC Berkeley until 2020 and worked at the AI company Databricks before joining DOGE as a special adviser to the director at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Corcos is also a special adviser to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Since joining Musk’s DOGE, Corcos has told IRS workers that he wants to pause all engineering work and cancel current attempts to modernize the agency’s systems, according to sources with direct knowledge who spoke with WIRED. He has also spoken about some aspects of these cuts publicly: "We've so far stopped work and cut about $1.5 billion from the modernization budget. Mostly projects that were going to continue to put us down the death spiral of complexity in our code base," Corcos told Laura Ingraham on Fox News in March.

Corcos has discussed plans for DOGE to build “one new API to rule them all,” making IRS data more easily accessible for cloud platforms, sources say. APIs, or application programming interfaces, enable different applications to exchange data, and could be used to move IRS data into the cloud. The cloud platform could become the “read center of all IRS systems,” a source with direct knowledge tells WIRED, meaning anyone with access could view and possibly manipulate all IRS data in one place.

Over the last few weeks, DOGE has requested the names of the IRS’s best engineers from agency staffers. Next week, DOGE and IRS leadership are expected to host dozens of engineers in DC so they can begin “ripping up the old systems” and building the API, an IRS engineering source tells WIRED. The goal is to have this task completed within 30 days. Sources say there have been multiple discussions about involving third-party cloud and software providers like Palantir in the implementation.

Corcos and DOGE indicated to IRS employees that they intended to first apply the API to the agency’s mainframes and then move on to every other internal system. Initiating a plan like this would likely touch all data within the IRS, including taxpayer names, addresses, social security numbers, as well as tax return and employment data. Currently, the IRS runs on dozens of disparate systems housed in on-premises data centers and in the cloud that are purposefully compartmentalized. Accessing these systems requires special permissions and workers are typically only granted access on a need-to-know basis.

A “mega API” could potentially allow someone with access to export all IRS data to the systems of their choosing, including private entities. If that person also had access to other interoperable datasets at separate government agencies, they could compare them against IRS data for their own purposes.

“Schematizing this data and understanding it would take years,” an IRS source tells WIRED. “Just even thinking through the data would take a long time, because these people have no experience, not only in government, but in the IRS or with taxes or anything else.” (“There is a lot of stuff that I don't know that I am learning now,” Corcos tells Ingraham in the Fox interview. “I know a lot about software systems, that's why I was brought in.")

These systems have all gone through a tedious approval process to ensure the security of taxpayer data. Whatever may replace them would likely still need to be properly vetted, sources tell WIRED.

"It's basically an open door controlled by Musk for all American's most sensitive information with none of the rules that normally secure that data," an IRS worker alleges to WIRED.

The data consolidation effort aligns with President Donald Trump’s executive order from March 20, which directed agencies to eliminate information silos. While the order was purportedly aimed at fighting fraud and waste, it also could threaten privacy by consolidating personal data housed on different systems into a central repository, WIRED previously reported.

In a statement provided to WIRED on Saturday, a Treasury spokesperson said the department “is pleased to have gathered a team of long-time IRS engineers who have been identified as the most talented technical personnel. Through this coalition, they will streamline IRS systems to create the most efficient service for the American taxpayer. This week the team will be participating in the IRS Roadmapping Kickoff, a seminar of various strategy sessions, as they work diligently to create efficient systems. This new leadership and direction will maximize their capabilities and serve as the tech-enabled force multiplier that the IRS has needed for decades.”

Palantir, Sam Corcos, and Gavin Kliger did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

In February, a memo was drafted to provide Kliger with access to personal taxpayer data at the IRS, The Washington Post reported. Kliger was ultimately provided read-only access to anonymized tax data, similar to what academics use for research. Weeks later, Corcos arrived, demanding detailed taxpayer and vendor information as a means of combating fraud, according to the Post.

“The IRS has some pretty legacy infrastructure. It's actually very similar to what banks have been using. It's old mainframes running COBOL and Assembly and the challenge has been, how do we migrate that to a modern system?” Corcos told Ingraham in the same Fox News interview. Corcos said he plans to continue his work at IRS for a total of six months.

DOGE has already slashed and burned modernization projects at other agencies, replacing them with smaller teams and tighter timelines. At the Social Security Administration, DOGE representatives are planning to move all of the agency’s data off of legacy programming languages like COBOL and into something like Java, WIRED reported last week.

Last Friday, DOGE suddenly placed around 50 IRS technologists on administrative leave. On Thursday, even more technologists were cut, including the director of cybersecurity architecture and implementation, deputy chief information security officer, and acting director of security risk management. IRS’s chief technology officer, Kaschit Pandya, is one of the few technology officials left at the agency, sources say.

DOGE originally expected the API project to take a year, multiple IRS sources say, but that timeline has shortened dramatically down to a few weeks. “That is not only not technically possible, that's also not a reasonable idea, that will cripple the IRS,” an IRS employee source tells WIRED. “It will also potentially endanger filing season next year, because obviously all these other systems they’re pulling people away from are important.”

(Corcos also made it clear to IRS employees that he wanted to kill the agency’s Direct File program, the IRS’s recently released free tax-filing service.)

DOGE’s focus on obtaining and moving sensitive IRS data to a central viewing platform has spooked privacy and civil liberties experts.

“It’s hard to imagine more sensitive data than the financial information the IRS holds,” Evan Greer, director of Fight for the Future, a digital civil rights organization, tells WIRED.

Palantir received the highest FedRAMP approval this past December for its entire product suite, including Palantir Federal Cloud Service (PFCS) which provides a cloud environment for federal agencies to implement the company’s software platforms, like Gotham and Foundry. FedRAMP stands for Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program and assesses cloud products for security risks before governmental use.

“We love disruption and whatever is good for America will be good for Americans and very good for Palantir,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp said in a February earnings call. “Disruption at the end of the day exposes things that aren't working. There will be ups and downs. This is a revolution, some people are going to get their heads cut off.”
