title: Convert a TensorFlow model in a format that can be served
body: <p>I am following Tensorflow serving documentation to convert my trained model into a format that can be served in Docker container. As I'm new to Tensorflow, I am struggling to convert this trained model into a form that will be suitable for serving.</p>
  
  <p>The model is already trained and I have the checkpoint file and .meta file. So, I need to get the .pb file and variables folder from the above two files. Can anyone please suggest me an approach on how to get this done for serving the models?</p>
  
  <pre><code>.
  |-- tensorflow model
  |       -- 1
  |       |-- saved_model.pb
  |       -- variables
  |           |-- variables.data-00000-of-00001
  |           -- variables.index
  </code></pre>
