📖 Overview

This project implements a production-grade MLOps pipeline for predicting customer churn in the telecommunications industry. It addresses a critical business problem: telecom companies lose 26.5% of customers annually, costing billions in revenue.

🎯 What This Project Does

  • Predicts churn risk for 7,043 telecom customers using ML (84.66% ROC-AUC)
  • Streams data through Apache Kafka for real-time inference (8.2ms latency)
  • Orchestrates workflows with Apache Airflow for automated retraining
  • Tracks experiments using MLflow with 15+ model versions
  • Deploys containerized REST API for production inference

💼 Business Impact

Metric Value Impact
Baseline Churn Rate 26.5% Industry standard
Model Recall 80.75% Catch 4 out of 5 churners
Annual Savings +$220,000 Based on LTV analysis
Retention Cost $50/customer vs. $2,000 acquisition

🧠 Learning Outcomes

This project demonstrates key MLOps and production ML skills:

1. ML Engineering

  • Feature engineering for imbalanced classification (73/27 split)
  • Model optimization for business metrics (recall-focused for churn prediction)
  • Hyperparameter tuning with class weight balancing
  • Decision threshold optimization (0.35 for recall maximization)

2. Production MLOps

  • End-to-end pipeline automation with Airflow
  • Experiment tracking and model versioning with MLflow
  • Distributed training with Apache Spark
  • Containerized deployment with Docker

3. Software Engineering

  • Modular code structure (src/, tests/, pipelines/)
  • Comprehensive test suite (212 tests passing, 96.4% coverage)
  • Configuration management (YAML, environment variables)
  • Version control best practices

4. Business Value Alignment

  • Metric selection based on cost asymmetry ($2,000 LTV vs $50 retention cost)
  • ROI calculation and business impact analysis (+$220k/year)
  • Trade-off evaluation (precision vs recall for churn use case)
  • Production readiness with monitoring and validation

📖 Usage

1. Data Preprocessing

Preprocess raw data and create train/test splits:

# Using Python
python src/data/preprocess.py

# Using Makefile
make preprocess

Output:

  • data/processed/X_train_processed.npz (5,634 samples, 45 features)
  • data/processed/X_test_processed.npz (1,409 samples, 45 features)
  • artifacts/models/preprocessor.joblib (9 KB)
  • artifacts/models/feature_names.json

2. Model Training

A. Scikit-learn Training (Standard)

# Basic training
python src/models/train.py

# Using Makefile
make train

Output:

  • artifacts/models/sklearn_pipeline.joblib (200 KB)
  • artifacts/metrics/sklearn_metrics.json

B. MLflow-Tracked Training (Recommended)

# Training with experiment tracking
python src/models/train_mlflow.py

# Using Makefile
make train-mlflow

Output:

  • MLflow Run ID: d165e184b3944c50851f14a65aaf12b5
  • Model Version: 15 (registered in MLflow)
  • artifacts/models/sklearn_pipeline_mlflow.joblib (200 KB)
  • artifacts/metrics/sklearn_metrics_mlflow.json

3. Distributed Training with PySpark

Train RandomForest using Apache Spark:

# PySpark pipeline
python pipelines/spark_pipeline.py

# Using Makefile
make spark-pipeline

Output:

  • artifacts/models/pipeline_metadata.json (1.2 KB)
  • artifacts/models/feature_importances.json
  • artifacts/metrics/spark_rf_metrics.json

Performance:

  • ROC-AUC: 82.79%
  • PR-AUC: 66.15%
  • Train/Test: 5,698 / 1,345 samples

Note (Windows Users): If you encounter HADOOP_HOME warnings, the pipeline will automatically fall back to metadata-based model saving. For production, deploy Spark pipelines in Linux containers.

4. Batch Inference

Generate predictions for multiple customers:

# Batch prediction
python src/inference/batch_predict.py

# Using Makefile
make batch-predict

Input: data/processed/sample.csv (100 customers)
Output: artifacts/predictions/batch_preds.csv

Sample output format:

customerID,prediction,churn_probability
7590-VHVEG,0,0.2341
5575-GNVDE,1,0.8792
...

Analyze predictions:

# Summary statistics
python -c "
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('artifacts/predictions/batch_preds.csv')
print(f'Total predictions: {len(df)}')
print(f'Churn rate: {df.prediction.mean():.2%}')
print(f'Avg churn probability: {df.churn_probability.mean():.4f}')
"

Expected output:

Total predictions: 100
Churn rate: 23.00%
Avg churn probability: 0.2764

📚 Usage Guide

7. Kafka Streaming Producer (Mini Project 2)

Produce customer data to Kafka topics for real-time churn prediction:

Prerequisites

Make sure Kafka is running:

# Start Kafka (Redpanda)
docker compose -f docker-compose.kafka.yml up -d

# Create topics
bash scripts/kafka_create_topics.sh
# OR on Windows PowerShell
.\scripts\kafka_create_topics.ps1

# Verify topics
docker exec telco-redpanda rpk topic list

A. Dry-Run Mode (No Kafka Required)

Test message generation without publishing:

```# Streaming mode dry-run

python src/streaming/producer.py \

</details>    --mode streaming \

    --events-per-sec 5 \

<details>    --dry-run

<summary><b>❌ Model file not found</b></summary>

# Batch mode dry-run

```bashpython src/streaming/producer.py \

# Ensure model is trained    --mode batch \

python pipelines/sklearn_pipeline.py    --batch-size 100 \

    --dry-run

# Verify model exists```

ls -lh artifacts/models/sklearn_pipeline.joblib

**Output:**

# If missing, retrain- Messages logged to `logs/kafka_producer.log`

python pipelines/sklearn_pipeline.py- Schema validation performed

```- No actual Kafka publishing



</details>#### B. Streaming Mode (Continuous Random Sampling)



<details>Continuously sample random customers from dataset:

<summary><b>❌ Python package import errors</b></summary>

```bash

```bash# Basic streaming (1 event/sec)

```bash
# Basic streaming (1 event/sec)
python src/streaming/producer.py --mode streaming

# High-throughput streaming (10 events/sec)
python src/streaming/producer.py \
    --mode streaming \
    --events-per-sec 10 \
    --broker localhost:19092 \
    --topic telco.raw.customers

# With custom dataset

python src/streaming/producer.py \
    --mode streaming \
    --events-per-sec 5 \
    --dataset-path data/raw/Custom-Data.csv

Behavior:

  • Random customer sampling from dataset
  • Adds event_ts timestamp (randomized within 24h)
  • Message key: customerID
  • JSON format with all customer attributes
  • Press Ctrl+C for graceful shutdown

Example Message:

{
  "customerID": "7590-VHVEG",
  "gender": "Female",
  "SeniorCitizen": 0,
  "Partner": "Yes",
  "tenure": 1,
  "MonthlyCharges": 29.85,
  "TotalCharges": 29.85,
  "Churn": "No",
  "event_ts": "2025-10-10T14:23:15Z"
}

C. Batch Mode (Sequential CSV Processing)

Process entire dataset in chunks with checkpoint resume:

# Basic batch processing
python src/streaming/producer.py --mode batch

# Custom batch size
python src/streaming/producer.py \
    --mode batch \
    --batch-size 500 \
    --checkpoint-file artifacts/my_checkpoint.json

# Resume interrupted processing
python src/streaming/producer.py \
    --mode batch \
    --checkpoint-file artifacts/producer_checkpoint.json

Features:

  • Sequential CSV reading
  • Chunked processing (default: 100 records/batch)
  • Checkpoint save/resume (survives crashes)
  • Progress logging every batch

Checkpoint Format:

{
  "last_row": 5634,
  "last_offset": 5634,
  "timestamp": "2025-10-10T15:30:00Z"
}

8. Kafka Streaming Consumer (Mini Project 2)

Run ML inference consumer to process Kafka messages:

# Start consumer (default settings)
python src/streaming/consumer.py

# With custom broker
python src/streaming/consumer.py --broker localhost:19092 --topic telco.raw.customers

# Monitor logs
tail -f logs/kafka_consumer.log

Consumer Behavior:

  • Subscribes to telco.raw.customers topic
  • Loads trained model (sklearn_pipeline_mlflow.joblib)
  • Performs real-time churn predictions
  • Publishes results to telco.predictions.churn topic
  • Handles dead letter queue for failed messages
  • Graceful shutdown on Ctrl+C

Output Format:

{
  "customerID": "7590-VHVEG",
  "prediction": 0,
  "churn_probability": 0.2341,
  "model_version": "15",
  "timestamp": "2025-10-10T14:23:16Z"
}

Verify Messages

Option 1: Console Consumer

# Consume all messages from raw topic
docker exec -it telco-redpanda rpk topic consume telco.raw.customers --from-beginning

# Consume prediction results
docker exec -it telco-redpanda rpk topic consume telco.predictions.churn --num 10

# JSON formatted output
docker exec -it telco-redpanda rpk topic consume telco.predictions.churn --format json

Option 2: Redpanda Console UI

  • Navigate to: http://localhost:8080
  • Click "Topics" → telco.raw.customers or telco.predictions.churn
  • View messages in real-time

E. Message Validation (Optional)

Enable schema validation to ensure message quality:

# Streaming mode with validation
python -m src.streaming.producer \
    --mode streaming \
    --events-per-sec 5 \
    --validate \
    --dry-run

# Batch mode with validation
python -m src.streaming.producer \
    --mode batch \
    --batch-size 100 \
    --validate

Validation Features:

  • ✅ Validates against JSON Schema (schemas/telco_customer_schema.json)
  • ✅ Checks required fields (22 total)
  • ✅ Validates field types and value ranges
  • ✅ Enforces enum constraints
  • ✅ Pattern matching for customerID and timestamps
  • ✅ Logs validation failures with detailed error messages
  • ✅ Tracks validation metrics (sent vs failed)

Note: Run as a module (python -m src.streaming.producer) to enable validation.

For detailed schema documentation, see: docs/kafka_schema.md

mlflow.set_tracking_uri("file:///path/to/mlruns")

3. PySpark HADOOP_HOME Warning

Problem:

HADOOP_HOME and hadoop.home.dir are unset

Solution (Windows):

# Option 1: Install Hadoop binaries
# Download from https://github.com/cdarlint/winutils
$env:HADOOP_HOME = "C:\hadoop"
$env:PATH += ";$env:HADOOP_HOME\bin"

# Option 2: Use WSL2 for Spark
wsl
source .venv/bin/activate
python pipelines/spark_pipeline.py

4. Airflow DAG Not Found

Problem:

DAG not showing in Airflow UI

Solution:

# Check DAG syntax
python dags/telco_churn_dag.py

# Verify AIRFLOW_HOME
echo $AIRFLOW_HOME

# Refresh DAGs
airflow dags list

5. Docker Port Conflict

Problem:

Port 5000 already in use

Solution:

# Find process using port
# Windows PowerShell:
netstat -ano | findstr :5000
taskkill /PID <PID> /F

# Linux/macOS:
lsof -ti:5000 | xargs kill -9

# Or use different port
docker run -p 5001:5000 telco-churn-api:latest

6. Memory Errors (PySpark)

Problem:

OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Solution:

# Increase driver memory
export PYSPARK_DRIVER_MEMORY=4g

# Or in code
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
spark = SparkSession.builder \
    .config("spark.driver.memory", "4g") \
    .getOrCreate()
