At Neon digital bank in Brazil, we strive to make revenue-impacting predictions based on customer behavior. Building a low latency and high availability distributed system that meets this requirement becomes especially challenging.
In this talk, I will present how Neon improved the reliability, transparency and quality of its credit decisions by taking advantage of machine-learning models running on Tensorflow Serving and how we integrated the process with a credit approval backend on Go. I'll cover:
- How to carefully roll out a new credit modeling system using dark launches and observability tools.
- How Tensorflow Serving simplifies the serving path for machine-learning models, despite a few quirks and limitations.
- How to meet latency and reliability requirements through network proximity while complying with regulatory constraints.
