The Azure Machine Learning SDK allows data scientists and machine learning engineers to harness the cloud's power in their day-to-day operations. Data science enthusiasts can train their models against scalable compute and GPU clusters on-demand in the cloud, all from the same Jupyter notebook experience.

With the Azure Machine Learning SDK, comes Azure ML pipelines. Machine learning engineers can create a CI/CD approach to their data science tasks by splitting their workflows into pipeline steps. This allows for greater scalability when dealing with large scale data. The separation of functions greatly benefits complex model orchestration as engineers and scientists can focus on one segment at a time. It also provides cost savings by enabling different levels of compute for each step.

In this lab, you will dive into Azure Notebooks and launch a Jupyter notebook to build an Azure ML pipeline that ingests data, trains a model, and deploys a web service.
