More Tools Emerge for AI Deployment

As data scientists confront operational challenges that are slowing the transition of machine learning models to production, more vendors are stepping up with possible solutions for breaking up the logjam. The latest is data science platform vendor Domino Data Lab, which rolled out the latest release of its flagship LaunchPad module this week. The 3.0 version specifically addresses "last mile" data science hurdles to streamline the model deployment process while speeding up ongoing improvements to production models. Citing the slow rate of AI model utilization, Domino Data Lab and others are offering tools designed to bridge the gap between IT and DevOps teams. That is increasingly seen as the biggest operational challenge as data science teams struggle to push models to production.
