How deeply does Distributed Machine Learning Patterns cover SavedModel?

Explains export coordination and storage persistence, while deferring detailed serving treatment.

SavedModel

As explained in Distributed Machine Learning Patterns

TensorFlow SavedModel is TensorFlow's serialized model format for storing a model and its serving information for later consumption.

TensorFlow SavedModel is a serialized model format that preserves a trained model for later consumption by model-serving components. In distributed training, export it once from the chief worker rather than writing competing copies from every worker. section 9.2.2

A reliable SavedModel export requires:

Mounting persistent storage because Kubernetes Pods recycle their files after distributed training completes. section 9.2.2

Distributed export path

A two-worker TFJob mounts /trained_model, passes /trained_model/saved_model_versions/2/ as saved_model_dir, and writes the final SavedModel from the chief worker.
