Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central. Author: Chris Kachris. Machine learning applications require powerful and scalable computing systems that can sustain the high computation complexity of these applications. Companies that are working on the domain of machine learning have to allocate a significant amount of their budget for the OpEx of machine learning applications whether this is done on cloud or on-prem. Typical machine learning application (especially when auto ML is used) can scale to as much as 30 nodes or higher (servers) to provide useful results, increasing significantly the TCO.

Feed: Blog Post – Corporate – DataStax. Author: Louise Westoby, Senior Director, Product Marketing. Managing the trade-off between consistency and availability is nothing new in distributed databases. It’s such a well-known issue that there is a theorem to describe it. While modern databases don’t tend to fall neatly into categories, the “CAP” theorem (also known as Brewer’s theorem) is still a useful place to start. The CAP theorem states that a database can’t simultaneously guarantee consistency, availability, and partition tolerance. Partition tolerance refers to the idea that a database can continue to run even if network connections between groups of ... Read More

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. You generally write unit tests for your code, but do you also test your data? Incorrect or malformed data can have a large impact on production systems. Examples of data quality issues are:Missing values can lead to failures in production system that require non-null values (NullPointerException). Changes in the distribution of data can lead to unexpected outputs of machine learning models. Aggregations of incorrect data can lead to wrong business decisions. In this blog post, we introduce Deequ, an open source tool developed and used at Amazon. Deequ allows you to calculate data quality metrics ... Read More
