Why Feature Stores Exist

Solve duplicated logic and training-serving skew.

The Same Feature, Twice

Your training code computes a 7-day average, and your serving code does it again. Two copies of the same logic is where a feature store earns its keep. 🧩

A feature is one input signal your model learns from, like a customer's total orders this month. Models eat features, not raw rows.
