Wallaroo Edge Observability with Classification Financial Models
The following tutorial is available on the Wallaroo Github Repository.
Classification Financial Services Edge Deployment Demonstration
This notebook will walk through building Wallaroo pipeline with a a Classification model deployed to detect the likelihood of credit card fraud, then publishing that pipeline to an Open Container Initiative (OCI) Registry where it can be deployed in other Docker and Kubernetes environments.
This demonstration will focus on deployment to the edge. For further examples of using Wallaroo with this computer vision models, see Wallaroo 101.
This demonstration performs the following:
- In Wallaroo Ops:
- Setting up a workspace, pipeline, and model for deriving the price of a house based on inputs.
- Creating an assay from a sample of inferences.
- Display the inference result and upload the assay to the Wallaroo instance where it can be referenced later.
- In a remote aka edge location:
- Deploying the Wallaroo pipeline as a Wallaroo Inference Server deployed on an edge device with observability features.
- In Wallaroo Ops:
- Observe the Wallaroo Ops and remote Wallaroo Inference Server inference results as part of the pipeline logs.
Prerequisites
- A deployed Wallaroo Ops instance.
- A location with Docker or Kubernetes with
helmfor Wallaroo Inference server deployments. - The following Python libraries installed:

Data Scientist Pipeline Publish Steps
Load Libraries
The first step is to import the libraries used in this notebook.
import wallaroo
from wallaroo.object import EntityNotFoundError
import pyarrow as pa
import pandas as pd
import requests
# used to display dataframe information without truncating
from IPython.display import display
pd.set_option('display.max_colwidth', None)
pd.set_option('display.max_columns', None)
Connect to the Wallaroo Instance through the User Interface
The next step is to connect to Wallaroo through the Wallaroo client. The Python library is included in the Wallaroo install and available through the Jupyter Hub interface provided with your Wallaroo environment.
This is accomplished using the wallaroo.Client() command, which provides a URL to grant the SDK permission to your specific Wallaroo environment. When displayed, enter the URL into a browser and confirm permissions. Store the connection into a variable that can be referenced later.
If logging into the Wallaroo instance through the internal JupyterHub service, use wl = wallaroo.Client(). For more information on Wallaroo Client settings, see the Client Connection guide.
wl = wallaroo.Client()
Create a New Workspace
We’ll use the SDK below to create our workspace , assign as our current workspace, then display all of the workspaces we have at the moment. We’ll also set up variables for our models and pipelines down the road, so we have one spot to change names to whatever fits your organization’s standards best.
To allow this tutorial to be run by multiple users in the same Wallaroo instance, a random 4 character prefix will be added to the workspace, pipeline, and model. Feel free to set suffix='' if this is not required.
workspace_name = f'edge-observability-demo'
pipeline_name = 'edge-observability-pipeline'
xgboost_model_name = 'ccfraud-xgboost'
xgboost_model_file_name = './models/xgboost_ccfraud.onnx'
workspace = wl.get_workspace(name=workspace_name, create_if_not_exist=True)
wl.set_current_workspace(workspace)
{'name': 'edge-observability-demo', 'id': 14, 'archived': False, 'created_by': '1a819833-f4ef-4298-8065-1785a7014681', 'created_at': '2025-07-15T20:41:35.762274+00:00', 'models': [], 'pipelines': []}
Upload the Model
When a model is uploaded to a Wallaroo cluster, it is optimized and packaged to make it ready to run as part of a pipeline. In many times, the Wallaroo Server can natively run a model without any Python overhead. In other cases, such as a Python script, a custom Python environment will be automatically generated. This is comparable to the process of “containerizing” a model by adding a small HTTP server and other wrapping around it.
Our pretrained model is in ONNX format, which is specified in the framework parameter.
xgboost_edge_demo_model = wl.upload_model(
xgboost_model_name,
xgboost_model_file_name,
framework=wallaroo.framework.Framework.ONNX,
).configure(tensor_fields=["tensor"])
Reserve Pipeline Resources
Before deploying an inference engine we need to tell wallaroo what resources it will need.
To do this we will use the wallaroo DeploymentConfigBuilder() and fill in the options listed below to determine what the properties of our inference engine will be.
We will be testing this deployment for an edge scenario, so the resource specifications are kept small – what’s the minimum needed to meet the expected load on the planned hardware.
- cpus - 1 => allow the engine to use 4 CPU cores when running the neural net
- memory - 900Mi => each inference engine will have 2 GB of memory, which is plenty for processing a single image at a time.
deploy_config = (wallaroo
.DeploymentConfigBuilder()
.replica_count(1)
.cpus(1)
.memory("900Mi")
.build()
)
Simulated Edge Deployment
We will now deploy our pipeline into the current Kubernetes environment using the specified resource constraints. This is a “simulated edge” deploy in that we try to mimic the edge hardware as closely as possible.
pipeline = wl.build_pipeline(pipeline_name)
display(pipeline)
# clear the pipeline if previously run
pipeline.clear()
pipeline.add_model_step(xgboost_edge_demo_model)
pipeline.deploy(deployment_config = deploy_config)

Run Single Image Inference
A single image, encoded using the Apache Arrow format, is sent to the deployed pipeline. Arrow is used here because, as a binary protocol, there is far lower network and compute overhead than using JSON. The Wallaroo Server engine accepts both JSON, pandas DataFrame, and Apache Arrow formats.
The sample DataFrames and arrow tables are in the ./data directory. We’ll use the Apache Arrow table cc_data_10k.arrow.
Once complete, we’ll display how long the inference request took.
import datetime
import time
deploy_url = pipeline._deployment._url()
headers = wl.auth.auth_header()
headers['Content-Type']='application/vnd.apache.arrow.file'
# headers['Content-Type']='application/json; format=pandas-records'
headers['Accept']='application/json; format=pandas-records'
dataFile = './data/cc_data_1k.arrow'

We will import the inference output, and isolate the metadata partition to store where the inference results are stored in the pipeline logs.
# display the first 20 results
df_results = pd.read_json('./curl_response_xgboost.df.json', orient="records")
# get just the partition
df_results['partition'] = df_results['metadata'].map(lambda x: x['partition'])
# display(df_results.head(20))
display(df_results.head(20).loc[:, ['time', 'out', 'partition']])

Publish the Pipeline for Edge Deployment
It worked! For a demo, we’ll take working once as “tested”. So now that we’ve tested our pipeline, we are ready to publish it for edge deployment.
Publishing it means assembling all of the configuration files and model assets and pushing them to an Open Container Initiative (OCI) repository set in the Wallaroo instance as the Edge Registry service. DevOps engineers then retrieve that image and deploy it through Docker, Kubernetes, or similar deployments.
See Edge Deployment Registry Guide for details on adding an OCI Registry Service to Wallaroo as the Edge Deployment Registry.
This is done through the SDK command wallaroo.pipeline.publish(deployment_config).
Publish Example
We will now publish the pipeline to our Edge Deployment Registry with the pipeline.publish(deployment_config) command. deployment_config is an optional field that specifies the pipeline deployment. This can be overridden by the DevOps engineer during deployment.
pub=pipeline.publish(deploy_config)
display(pub)

List Publishes from a Pipeline
All publishes created from a pipeline are displayed with the wallaroo.pipeline.publishes method. The pipeline_version_id is used to know what version of the pipeline was used in that specific publish. This allows for pipelines to be updated over time, and newer versions to be sent and tracked to the Edge Deployment Registry service.
List Publishes Parameters

DevOps - Pipeline Edge Deployment
Once a pipeline is deployed to the Edge Registry service, it can be deployed in environments such as Docker, Kubernetes, or similar container running services by a DevOps engineer as a Wallaroo Server.
The following guides will demonstrate publishing a Wallaroo Pipeline as a Wallaroo Server.
Add Edge Location
Wallaroo Servers can optionally connect to the Wallaroo Ops instance and transmit their inference results. These are added to the pipeline logs for the published pipeline the Wallaroo Server is associated with.
Wallaroo Servers are added with the wallaroo.pipeline_publish.add_edge(name: string) method. The name is the unique primary key for each edge added to the pipeline publish and must be unique.
This returns a Publish Edge with the following fields:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id | Integer | The integer ID of the pipeline publish. |
created_at | DateTime | The DateTime of the pipeline publish. |
docker_run_variables | String | The Docker variables in UUID format that include the following: The BUNDLE_VERSION, EDGE_NAME, JOIN_TOKEN_, OPSCENTER_HOST, PIPELINE_URL, and WORKSPACE_ID. |
engine_config | String | The Wallaroo wallaroo.deployment_config.DeploymentConfig for the pipeline. |
pipeline_version_id | Integer | The integer identifier of the pipeline version published. |
status | String | The status of the publish. Published is a successful publish. |
updated_at | DateTime | The DateTime when the pipeline publish was updated. |
user_images | List(String) | User images used in the pipeline publish. |
created_by | String | The UUID of the Wallaroo user that created the pipeline publish. |
engine_url | String | The URL for the published pipeline’s Wallaroo engine in the OCI registry. |
error | String | Any errors logged. |
helm | String | The helm chart, helm reference and helm version. |
pipeline_url | String | The URL for the published pipeline’s container in the OCI registry. |
pipeline_version_name | String | The UUID identifier of the pipeline version published. |
additional_properties | String | Any other identities. |

Remove Edge Location
Wallaroo Servers are removed with the wallaroo.pipeline_publish.remove_edge(name: string) method.
This returns a Publish Edge with the following fields:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id | Integer | The integer ID of the pipeline publish. |
created_at | DateTime | The DateTime of the pipeline publish. |
docker_run_variables | String | The Docker variables in UUID format that include the following: The BUNDLE_VERSION, EDGE_NAME, JOIN_TOKEN_, OPSCENTER_HOST, PIPELINE_URL, and WORKSPACE_ID. |
engine_config | String | The Wallaroo wallaroo.deployment_config.DeploymentConfig for the pipeline. |
pipeline_version_id | Integer | The integer identifier of the pipeline version published. |
status | String | The status of the publish. Published is a successful publish. |
updated_at | DateTime | The DateTime when the pipeline publish was updated. |
user_images | List(String) | User images used in the pipeline publish. |
created_by | String | The UUID of the Wallaroo user that created the pipeline publish. |
engine_url | String | The URL for the published pipeline’s Wallaroo engine in the OCI registry. |
error | String | Any errors logged. |
helm | String | The helm chart, helm reference and helm version. |
pipeline_url | String | The URL for the published pipeline’s container in the OCI registry. |
pipeline_version_name | String | The UUID identifier of the pipeline version published. |
additional_properties | String | Any other identities. |
Two edge publishes will be created so we can demonstrate removing an edge shortly.

DevOps - Pipeline Edge Deployment
Once a pipeline is deployed to the Edge Registry service, it can be deployed in environments such as Docker, Kubernetes, or similar container running services by a DevOps engineer. For our example, we will use the docker run command output during the pipeline publish.
Edge Deployed Pipeline API Endpoints
Once deployed, we can check the pipelines and models available. We’ll use a curl command, but any HTTP based request will work the same way.
The endpoint /pipelines returns:
- id (String): The name of the pipeline.
- status (String): The status as either
Running, orErrorif there are any issues.
For this example, the deployment is made on a machine called localhost. Replace this URL with the URL of you edge deployment.
!curl testboy.local:8081/pipelines
{"pipelines":[{"id":"edge-observability-pipeline","version":"7b3c8209-0242-4458-99f2-aee9626c8a4c","status":"Running"}]}
The endpoint /models returns a List of models with the following fields:
- name (String): The model name.
- sha (String): The sha hash value of the ML model.
- status (String): The status of either Running or Error if there are any issues.
- version (String): The model version. This matches the version designation used by Wallaroo to track model versions in UUID format.
!curl testboy.local:8081/models
{"models":[{"sha":"054810e3e3ebbdd34438d9c1a08ed6a6680ef10bf97b9223f78ebf38e14b3b52","name":"ccfraud-xgboost","version":"2e73dd1e-afaf-4bef-b790-939b2fb75290","status":"Running","model_version_id":23}]}
Edge Inference Endpoint
The inference endpoint takes the following pattern:
/pipelines/infer
Wallaroo inference endpoint URLs accept the following data inputs through the Content-Type header:
Content-Type: application/vnd.apache.arrow.file: For Apache Arrow tables.Content-Type: application/json; format=pandas-records: For pandas DataFrame in record format.
Once deployed, we can perform an inference through the deployment URL.
The endpoint returns Content-Type: application/json; format=pandas-records by default with the following fields:
- check_failures (List[Integer]): Whether any validation checks were triggered. For more information, see Wallaroo SDK Essentials Guide: Pipeline Management: Anomaly Testing.
- elapsed (List[Integer]): A list of time in nanoseconds for:
- [0] The time to serialize the input.
- [1…n] How long each step took.
- model_name (String): The name of the model used.
- model_version (String): The version of the model in UUID format.
- original_data: The original input data. Returns
nullif the input may be too long for a proper return. - outputs (List): The outputs of the inference result separated by data type, where each data type includes:
- data: The returned values.
- dim (List[Integer]): The dimension shape returned.
- v (Integer): The vector shape of the data.
- pipeline_name (String): The name of the pipeline.
- shadow_data: Any shadow deployed data inferences in the same format as outputs.
- time (Integer): The time since UNIX epoch.
