In-Database Machine Learning with Jupyter

The data warehouse has been an analytics workhorse for decades. Unprecedented volumes of data, new types of data, and the need for advanced analyses like machine learning brought on the age of the data lake. But Hadoop by itself doesn’t really live up to the hype. Now, many companies have a data lake, a data warehouse, or a mishmash of both, possibly combined with a mandate to go to the cloud. The end result can be a sprawling mess, a lot of duplicated effort, a lot of missed opportunities, a lot of projects that never made it into production, and a lot of financial investment without return. Technical and spiritual unification of the two opposed camps can make a powerful impact on the effectiveness of analytics for the business overall.

Over time, different organizations with massive workloads like IoT have found practical ways to bridge the artificial gap between these two data management strategies. Look under the hood at how companies have gotten high scale machine learning projects working, and how their data architectures have changed over time. Learn about new architectures that successfully supply the needs of both business analysts and data scientists. Get a peek at the future.
