Hi, Thanks for reaching out to Databricks.

Registering a model can be done, and it is not mentioned if it is optional or not in Microsoft documents.

Reference : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/databricks/applications/mlflow/models#register-models-in-the-...y.

As you will be deploying it in AKS, it will be better to reach out to Microsoft support on the same.
