This document discusses using Docker for machine learning and natural language processing projects. It introduces Spago, an open source machine learning library written in Go, and demos deploying a Spago project to Kubernetes using Okteto. The key points are:
- Docker is useful for ML development as it allows packaging models and code into containers for scalable and reproducible deployments.
- Spago is a pure Go library for NLP tasks like named entity recognition and question answering that aims to optimize CPU usage.
- Okteto allows easily deploying Docker Compose stacks to Kubernetes with minimal configuration.
- A live demo then shows deploying a Spago project to Kubernetes with Okteto.
