Who it's for

Students and developers needing a quick, hands-on MLflow tour within the Azure ecosystem.

Who should skip it

Anyone looking for a deep dive into MLflow's internals or use cases outside Databricks.

Pros

Includes a temporary Azure sandbox for the exercises.
Clear, step-by-step instructions for tracking experiments and registering models.
Covers the core MLflow workflow in about an hour.

Cons

Focus is entirely on the Azure Databricks UI; little on the Python SDK.
Sandbox can be slow to provision.

Waiting five minutes for the sandbox to spin up was the hardest part. It just walks you through clicking buttons in the Databricks UI to track a run and register a model. The Python code is basically copy-paste. This is a quick tour of MLflow's features, not a tutorial on how to instrument your own projects. I finished in under an hour, which was the goal.
