Warning: This notebook is designed to be run in a Google Colab only. It installs packages on the system and requires root access. If you want to run it in a local Jupyter notebook, please proceed with caution.
Note: You can run this example right now in a Jupyter-style notebook, no setup required! Just click "Run in Google Colab"
This guide trains a neural network model to classify images of clothing, like sneakers and shirts, saves the trained model, and then serves it with TensorFlow Serving. The focus is on TensorFlow Serving, rather than the modeling and training in TensorFlow, so for a complete example which focuses on the modeling and training see the Basic Classification example.
This guide uses tf.keras, a high-level API to build and train models in TensorFlow.

This guide uses the Fashion MNIST dataset which contains 70,000 grayscale images in 10 categories. The images show individual articles of clothing at low resolution (28 by 28 pixels), as seen here:

Fashion MNIST is intended as a drop-in replacement for the classic MNIST dataset—often used as the "Hello, World" of machine learning programs for computer vision. You can access the Fashion MNIST directly from TensorFlow, just import and load the data.
Note: Although these are really images, they are loaded as NumPy arrays and not binary image objects.
In [3]:
fashion_mnist = keras.datasets.fashion_mnist
(train_images, train_labels), (test_images, test_labels) = fashion_mnist.load_data()
# scale the values to 0.0 to 1.0
train_images = train_images / 255.0
test_images = test_images / 255.0
# reshape for feeding into the model
train_images = train_images.reshape(train_images.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
test_images = test_images.reshape(test_images.shape[0], 28, 28, 1)
class_names = ['T-shirt/top', 'Trouser', 'Pullover', 'Dress', 'Coat',
'Sandal', 'Shirt', 'Sneaker', 'Bag', 'Ankle boot']
print('\ntrain_images.shape: {}, of {}'.format(train_images.shape, train_images.dtype))
print('test_images.shape: {}, of {}'.format(test_images.shape, test_images.dtype))
In [4]:
model = keras.Sequential([
keras.layers.Conv2D(input_shape=(28,28,1), filters=8, kernel_size=3,
strides=2, activation='relu', name='Conv1'),
keras.layers.Flatten(),
keras.layers.Dense(10, activation=tf.nn.softmax, name='Softmax')
])
model.summary()
testing = False
epochs = 5
model.compile(optimizer='adam',
loss='sparse_categorical_crossentropy',
metrics=['accuracy'])
model.fit(train_images, train_labels, epochs=epochs)
test_loss, test_acc = model.evaluate(test_images, test_labels)
print('\nTest accuracy: {}'.format(test_acc))
To load our trained model into TensorFlow Serving we first need to save it in SavedModel format. This will create a protobuf file in a well-defined directory hierarchy, and will include a version number. TensorFlow Serving allows us to select which version of a model, or "servable" we want to use when we make inference requests. Each version will be exported to a different sub-directory under the given path.
In [5]:
# Fetch the Keras session and save the model
# The signature definition is defined by the input and output tensors,
# and stored with the default serving key
import tempfile
MODEL_DIR = tempfile.gettempdir()
version = 1
export_path = os.path.join(MODEL_DIR, str(version))
print('export_path = {}\n'.format(export_path))
tf.keras.models.save_model(
model,
export_path,
overwrite=True,
include_optimizer=True,
save_format=None,
signatures=None,
options=None
)
print('\nSaved model:')
!ls -l {export_path}
We'll use the command line utility saved_model_cli to look at the MetaGraphDefs (the models) and SignatureDefs (the methods you can call) in our SavedModel. See this discussion of the SavedModel CLI in the TensorFlow Guide.
In [6]:
!saved_model_cli show --dir {export_path} --all
That tells us a lot about our model! In this case we just trained our model, so we already know the inputs and outputs, but if we didn't this would be important information. It doesn't tell us everything, like the fact that this is grayscale image data for example, but it's a great start.
We're preparing to install TensorFlow Serving using Aptitude since this Colab runs in a Debian environment. We'll add the tensorflow-model-server package to the list of packages that Aptitude knows about. Note that we're running as root.
Note: This example is running TensorFlow Serving natively, but you can also run it in a Docker container, which is one of the easiest ways to get started using TensorFlow Serving.

!apt update
In [8]:
!apt-get install tensorflow-model-server
This is where we start running TensorFlow Serving and load our model. After it loads we can start making inference requests using REST. There are some important parameters:
rest_api_port: The port that you'll use for REST requests.model_name: You'll use this in the URL of REST requests. It can be anything.model_base_path: This is the path to the directory where you've saved your model.

os.environ["MODEL_DIR"] = MODEL_DIR
In [10]:
%%bash --bg
nohup tensorflow_model_server \
--rest_api_port=8501 \
--model_name=fashion_model \
--model_base_path="${MODEL_DIR}" >server.log 2>&1
In [11]:
!tail server.log

def show(idx, title):
plt.figure()
plt.imshow(test_images[idx].reshape(28,28))
plt.axis('off')

import random
rando = random.randint(0,len(test_images)-1)
show(rando, 'An Example Image: {}'.format(class_names[test_labels[rando]]))
Ok, that looks interesting. How hard is that for you to recognize? Now let's create the JSON object for a batch of three inference requests, and see how well our model recognizes things:
In [13]:
import json
data = json.dumps({"signature_name": "serving_default", "instances": test_images[0:3].tolist()})
print('Data: {} ... {}'.format(data[:50], data[len(data)-52:]))
In [14]:
!pip install -q requests
import requests
headers = {"content-type": "application/json"}
json_response = requests.post('http://localhost:8501/v1/models/fashion_model:predict', data=data, headers=headers)
predictions = json.loads(json_response.text)['predictions']
show(0, 'The model thought this was a {} (class {}), and it was actually a {} (class {})'.format(
class_names[np.argmax(predictions[0])], np.argmax(predictions[0]), class_names[test_labels[0]], test_labels[0]))
In [15]:
headers = {"content-type": "application/json"}
json_response = requests.post('http://localhost:8501/v1/models/fashion_model/versions/1:predict', data=data, headers=headers)
predictions = json.loads(json_response.text)['predictions']
for i in range(0,3):
show(i, 'The model thought this was a {} (class {}), and it was actually a {} (class {})'.format(
class_names[np.argmax(predictions[i])], np.argmax(predictions[i]), class_names[test_labels[i]], test_labels[i]))
