H2O.ai vs. NVIDIA RAPIDS

Use H2O.ai whenever you need easy to use tool, when you must be cost efficient (you can not charge the client extra money for software licenses used), need a tool with lots of algorithms that are normally used in data analytics, or need to work on one machine (it is either not allowed to move data to cloud storage or simply not necessary to connect to Hadoop, etc.). Also, you can call H2O directly from Python which makes analysis more efficient.

NVIDIA RAPIDS is great for integrated and planned machine learning and deep learning journey. It is excellent if you have big data with defined processes to be improved and monitored. It is less effective if the project is continuously changed and the data are to be prepared and cleaned a lot and [in] many different ways.

• No weaknesses found yet
• This is not really a drawback, but rather a warning - the Drivereless AI is not a replacement for a data scientist yet, and will not replace data scientists in the next decade neither. The Driverless AI feature delivers reliable results only if the analyst is sure about the meaning of input data. The data quality is usually a major issue and no tool can detect the meaning of data in the input. Data scientists are also required for business interpretation of the findings. So be careful, and do not rely on this feature without a good understanding of what it really does in each step.

• Its not flexible and cost effective for all sizes of organizations.
• I appreciate it has hassle-free integration.

The overall experience I have with H2O is really awesome, even with its cost effectiveness.

I have used Knime, RapidMiner, and Weka before I heard about H2O, but amongst all I really liked H2O. However, nowadays Googles AutoML and AWS SageMaker AutoML platform are really competitive, but more costly than H2O.

RAPIDS GPU accelerates machine learning to make the entire data science and analytics workflows run faster, also helps build databases and machine learning applications effectively. It also allows faster model deployment and iterations to increase machine learning model accuracy. The great value of money.

• Positive impact: saving in infrastructure expenses - compared to other bulky tools this costs a fraction
• Positive impact: ability to get quick fixes from H2O when problems arise - compared to waiting for several months/years for new releases from other vendors
• Positive impact: Access to H2O core team and able to get features that are needed for our business quickly added to the core H2O product

Incentivized

• Hassle free integration.
• Top model accuracy.
• Reduce training time.
