Software Architecture Gathering 2020 - Machine-Learning-basierte Systeme: Eine Einführung für Architekten

KI, Machine Learning und autonome Systeme sind auf dem Vormarsch und dabei hochgradig von Daten abhängig. Das Thema ist omnipräsent und wird meist entweder extrem abstrakt oder aber sehr algorithmisch, daten-zentriert, auch code-nah beleuchtet. Der Blick auf die Gesamtarchitektur von Systemen, die KI enthalten, fehlt dabei oft.

Unser Vortrag unterstützt Softwarearchitekten dabei, den Überblick zu behalten, die wesentlichen Fragen zu stellen, besser mit Data Scientists zusammenzuarbeiten und letztlich bessere Architekturen für Systeme basierend auf Machine Learning zu designen. Dazu orientieren wir uns an Schritten der Datensammlung, maschinellen Lernens und der Modellnutzung um Architekturaspekte systematisch zu beleuchten. Als illustrierendes Beispiel verwenden wir grundlegende architektonische Aspekte des autonomen Fahrens.

    ◼ ML as a technology does inherently aim more at realizing functionality than at realizing quality attributes (in contrast to e.g. communication middleware, blockchain, …) ◼ However, ML can be used to support achieving some quality attributes (e.g. achieving certain aspects of security by for example detecting attack patterns with ML) ◼ The usage of ML has significant impact on quality attributes, and thus needs architectural treatment ◼ One key aspect: missing comprehensibility / explainability what is happening in the ML- component ◼ Safety, reliability: conflicting with safety standards, needs counter-measures ◼ UX: Explaining to the user what happens / integrating user into overall flow
  24. © Fraunhofer IESE 53 Quality Attributes in ML-based Systems (2/2)

    ◼ Fulfill the respective quality attributes of the system, respecting the overall “scale” of the system ◼ Performance (latency, throughput), scalability, … ◼ Considering the runtime system, but also the devtime / learning system ◼ Provide an adequate execution environment ◼ Sufficient computing power ◼ Sufficient storage capacity ◼ Provide the right data with adequate frequency and latency ◼ Architect has to know the requirements / implications of the ML algorithm / model
  25. © Fraunhofer IESE 57 Conclusion: What does it mean for

    me? What can I do? ◼ Keep an eye on the architectural big picture, even if there is ML in the system ;-) ◼ Understand the very nature of ML-based systems ◼ Learn from existing systems and their solution approaches ◼ Remember the essentials of software architecture ◼ Achieving quality attributes ◼ Dealing with uncertainty ◼ Organizing and distributing work ◼ Fill your toolbox with knowledge about patterns and technologies in the ML-area ◼ Start working with data scientists / data engineers and establish a common language
