Dataiku vs. IBM Machine Learning for z/OS

I would recommend it because it's an amazing tool for different levels of users. From Business Analysts to Data Scientists to Managers, various employees can make use of this tool to make data-driven decisions. I'm not sure about where it would be less appropriate as I'm using it as Data Scientist and so far it pretty much caters to my need.

IBM Watson Machine Learning is an AI-based scalable self-learning model for any type of business. It can be used to help any company automate repetitive tasks, predict future trends, and make data-driven decisions. I used it to predict stock prices based on certain variables. It works well, cost me nothing, and gives me the ability to create my own AI-based models that I can use for any purpose.

• Very intuitive and easy to use UI, making a lot of types of users can collaborate with each other easily, by visualizing the same workflow.
• Many building blocks can be reused immediately, avoid a lot of non-standard boiler plate implementation.
• Data pre-analysis and feature engineering assistance increase the productivity as well as the efficiency of data scientists.
• Many data connectors support wide range of data storage, from SQL, TeraData, Hadoop Hive, etc.
• Support from research till final MaaS solution deployment.

• Its community support is very limited at the moment
• Complex to integrate with automation tools such as Blue Prism

• Proper usage of REST API documentation is missing.
• Not localization friendly, cannot support regional or local language documents.

As I have described earlier, the intuitiveness of this tool makes it great as well as the variety of users that can use this tool. Also, the plugins available in their repository provide solutions to various data science problems.

The open source user community is friendly, helpful, and responsive, at times even outdoing commercial software vendors. Documentation is also top notch, and usually resolves issues without the need for human interactions. Great product design, with a focus on user experience, also makes platform use intuitive, thus reducing the need for explicit support.

IBM had a hard time providing business level support. There were a lot of data scientists and technology experts but rarely a simple business person shows up. Also the way IBM operates IBM Consulting has competing priorities as compared to IBM Technology. This has resulted in a lot of confusion at the client's end.

Strictly for Data Science operations, Anaconda can be considered as a subset of Dataiku DSS. While Anaconda supports Python and R programming languages, Dataiku also provides this facility, but also provides GUI to creates models with just a click of a button. This provides the flexibility to users who do not wish to alter the model hyperparameters in greater depths. Writing codes to extract meaningful data is time consuming compared to Dataiku's ability to perform feature engineering and data transformation through click of a button.

We have been using Microsoft Azure as a machine learning tool. But the challenges remain the same. These are all tools that you need a robust analysis before a decision on the tool. Unfortunately, the technology company cannot make that determination due to lack of core business understanding. Without that the project is doomed.

• Given its open source status, only cost is the learning curve, which is minimal compared to time savings for data exploration.
• Platform also ease tracking of data processing workflow, unlike Excel.
• Build-in data visualizations covers many use cases with minimal customization; time saver.

• Create secure business environment.
• Save upto 90% of manual labor.
• Improve my sales and marketing ROI.
