6-6 Model Deploying Using tensorflow-serving

There are multiple ways to deploy and run the trained models which saved with the original tensorflow format.

For example:

We can load and run the model in the web browser using javascript through tensorflow-js.

We can load and run the TensorFlow model on mobile and embeded devices through tensorflow-lite.

We can use tensorflow-serving to load the model that providing network interface API service and to acquire the prediction results from the model through sending network requests in arbitrary programming languages.

We can predict using the TensorFlow model in Java or spark (scala) through the TensorFlow for Java port.

This section introduces model deploying by tensorflow serving and using spark (scala) to implement the TensorFlow models.

0. Introduction to model deploying by tensorflow serving

The necessary steps of model deploying using tensorflow serving are:

  • (1) Prepare the protobuf model file.

  • (2) Install the tensorflow serving.

  • (3) Start the tensorflow serving service.

  • (4) Send the request to the API service to obtain the prediction.

You may use the following link for testing (tf_serving, in Chinese) https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1vS5LAYJTEn-H0GDb1irzIuyRB8E3eWc8

%tensorflow_version 2.x
import tensorflow as tf
print(tf.__version__)
from tensorflow.keras import * 

1. Prepare the protobuf Model File

Here we train a simple linear regression model with tf.keras and save it as protobuf file.

import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras import models,layers,optimizers

## Number of samples
n = 800

## Generating testing dataset
X = tf.random.uniform([n,2],minval=-10,maxval=10) 
w0 = tf.constant([[2.0],[-1.0]])
b0 = tf.constant(3.0)

Y = X@w0 + b0 + tf.random.normal([n,1],
    mean = 0.0,stddev= 2.0) # @ is matrix multiplication; adding Gaussian noise

## Modeling
tf.keras.backend.clear_session()
inputs = layers.Input(shape = (2,),name ="inputs") # Set the input name as "inputs"
outputs = layers.Dense(1, name = "outputs")(inputs) # Set the output name as "outputs"
linear = models.Model(inputs = inputs,outputs = outputs)
linear.summary()

## Training with fit method
linear.compile(optimizer="rmsprop",loss="mse",metrics=["mae"])
linear.fit(X,Y,batch_size = 8,epochs = 100)  

tf.print("w = ",linear.layers[1].kernel)
tf.print("b = ",linear.layers[1].bias)

## Save the model as pb format
export_path = "../data/linear_model/"
version = "1"       # Version could be used for management of further updates
linear.save(export_path+version, save_format="tf") 
# Check the saved model file
!ls {export_path+version}
assets	saved_model.pb	variables
# Check the info of the model file
!saved_model_cli show --dir {export_path+str(version)} --all

2. Installing tensorflow serving

Two methods for installing tensorflow serving: Using Docker images, or using apt.

Docker image is the simplest way of installation and we recommend it.

Docker is a container that provides independent environment for various programs.

The companies that are using TensorFlow usually use Docker to install tensorflow serving by operation experts, so the algorithm engineers don't have to worry about the installation.

The installation of Docker on different OS are shown below (in Chinese).

Windows: https://www.runoob.com/docker/windows-docker-install.html

MacOs: https://www.runoob.com/docker/macos-docker-install.html

CentOS: https://www.runoob.com/docker/centos-docker-install.html

After successful installation of Docker, run the following command to load the tensorflow/serving image.

docker pull tensorflow/serving

3. Starting tensorflow serving Service

!docker run -t --rm -p 8501:8501 \
    -v "/Users/.../data/linear_model/" \
    -e MODEL_NAME=linear_model \
    tensorflow/serving & >server.log 2>&1

4. Sending request to the API service

The request could be sent through http function in any kind of the programming languages. We demonstrate request sending using the curl command in Linux and the requests library in Python.

!curl -d '{"instances": [1.0, 2.0, 5.0]}' \
    -X POST http://localhost:8501/v1/models/linear_model:predict
{
    "predictions": [[3.06546211], [5.01313448]
    ]
}
import json,requests

data = json.dumps({"signature_name": "serving_default", "instances": [[1.0, 2.0], [5.0,7.0]]})
headers = {"content-type": "application/json"}
json_response = requests.post('http://localhost:8501/v1/models/linear_model:predict', 
        data=data, headers=headers)
predictions = json.loads(json_response.text)["predictions"]
print(predictions)
[[3.06546211], [6.02843142]]
