The integration of machine learning into microservices architectures within federated digital infrastructure platforms has ushered in a new era of distributed artificial intelligence. This paradigm shift offers significant scalability and modularity advantages, yet presents acute challenges in data privacy. This paper explores a privacy-aware approach to deploying machine learning models in microservice-based AI ecosystems that operate over federated infrastructures. We analyze architectural considerations, privacy-preserving techniques, and real-world applications. Emphasis is placed on decentralized data handling, secure inference protocols, and federated learning. The research also investigates the implications of platform heterogeneity and regulatory constraints..
