Deployment#
The term deployment can have various meaning, e.g.,
The phase of a data science project where one scales up to full production, possibly with a release to the public.
The action of moving a pipeline from development to usage, maybe including going from personal computers to external (paid) servers.
Or, in our case, wrapping all the API calls, database tables, functions and logic in a way that makes it accessible to users in an intuitive way.
