In this issue: we discuss what a Feature Store is; we tell the story of how Uber Michelangelo began the Feature Store movement; we explore the feature store market. 💡 ML Concept of the Day: What is a Feature Store Feature stores are becoming one of the hottest buzzwords in the machine learning ecosystem. What started as a novel building block of Uber Michelangelo now seems to be one of the centerpieces of modern ML pipelines. Most MLOps platforms started to incorporate feature storage and lifecycle management capabilities as first-class citizen. Despite the rise in popularity, the adoption of feature stores in real-world machine learning applications remains relatively low. In the early phases of ML projects, feature stores can be seen as overkill and are often ignored. However, as machine learning infrastructure becomes larger and more complex, sometimes it becomes really disruptive to incorporate feature store capabilities.
