Abstract

This chapter explores the emerging discipline of LLMOps, contrasting it with traditional MLOps approaches and highlighting unique considerations when operationalizing GenAI models and applications. A detailed examination of implementing LLMOps across the model lifecycle is provided, encompassing activities like base model selection, prompt engineering, model tuning, deployment, and monitoring. Recognizing security as a critical priority, strategies for integrating DevSecOps into LLMOps are outlined, establishing security as a shared responsibility across the development and operational lifecycle. The chapter offers conceptual foundations and practical guidance for successfully navigating the intricacies of LLMOps.
