This repository contains a template and demonstrates how it is applied for a sample ML project ***Diabetes*** that creates a linear regression model to predict the diabetes.

If the desire is to adopt this template for your project and to use it with your machine learning code, it is recommended to go through this guide as it is first and then follow the [bootstrap instructions](../bootstrap/README.md) to convert the ***Diabetes*** sample into your project starting point.

specified). The examples of ML pipelines with R have a single step training a model, they don't demonstrate how to evaluate and register a model. The evaluation and registering techniques are shown only in the Python implementation.

* The second stage of the pipeline, **Train model**, triggers the run of the ML Training Pipeline. The training pipeline will train, evaluate, and register a new model. The actual computation is performed in an [Azure Machine Learning Compute cluster](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/how-to-set-up-training-targets#amlcompute). In Azure DevOps, this stage runs an agentless job that waits for the completion of the Azure ML job, allowing the pipeline to wait for training completion for hours or even days without using agent resources.
