You can almost hear the whooshing sound as the technology industry is sprinting to the marketplace with new solutions to help the enterprise garner useful and intelligent insights from their data. Analytics, Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) delivered in a simplistic form is what companies are demanding. To meet this mandate, Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. (HPE) has developed Haven OnDemand, which offers the latest technology in a simplified platform for developers. Jeff Veis, VP of Big Data Platform Solutions, HP Software, at HPE, spoke to John Furrier and Dave Vellante, cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during HPE Discover 2016 Las Vegas to discuss Big Data and the needs of the enterprise. Furrier began the interview by asking Veis about the driving force behind the need for Machine Learning.

It's been a very big year for big data, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. is helping enterprises get a handle on organizing and analyzing their data with tools that analyze in place and offer machine learning and cognitive capabilities, according to Jeff Veis, VP of marketing, big data platform, at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. Veis spoke to Dave Vellante (@dvellante) and Paul Gillin (@pgillin), co-hosts of theCUBE*, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during HPE Discover EU, held in London. Veis also discussed HPE big data solutions, including Vertica, which enables users to conduct data analysis, regardless of where the data resides; IDOL, a software solution that provides a single environment for structured, semi-structured and unstructured data; and Haven, an on-demand platform of more than 60 advanced machine-learning APIs and services. One of the concepts Veis talked about was "analyze in place," or ways customers can get the value out of their datalake. With Vertica, they get the performance of a Vertica front end with the economy of Hadoop. Vertica's new Frontloader was released in September; it added MS Azure support, in addition to AWS.

Machine learning has become a core component of companies' analytic initiatives and is no longer the "fine china" only brought out for special occasions, according to a manager with Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, which today announced that its Vertica analytics database now runs popular classes of machine learning algorithms. While previous versions of Vertica could run R algorithms -- as opposed to shipping them off to run on a Hadoop cluster or another adjacent system -- Vertica 8.0 will be the first version of the flagship columnar database that formally supports a broad collection of popular machine learning algorithms, according to Jeff Veis, vice president of marketing for Big Data Platforms at HPE (NYSE: HPE). "It used to be niche, or maybe like fine china for special occasions, to use machine learning, and now it's showing up as a must-have for almost all our customers," Veis tells Datanami. "It's becoming very important to do that form of advanced analytics. We brought that in-database so you can run it across your whole data set."

American multinational information technology company Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has recently launched its Heaven OnDemand service, joining many other tech giants and startups that are already working on offering machine-learning analytics as a cloud service to software developers. Delivered exclusively on Microsoft Azure Cloud, HPE's Haven OnDemand, makes its customers' life easier by simplifying the process of virtually turning data into an asset they can use whenever they want. Furthermore, the data access is made even faster so that any information needed in order to create deep and meaningful insights can be reached at any time without having to go through much trouble. "Our algorithm can handle any type of digital media, which could be email, Slack messages, Skype messages, whatever, but we started with social because it's free and publicly available," Tope Alibi, co-founder of San Francisco-based startup Social Capital said for eWEEK. "Haven OnDemand has been a great tool for us. With it, we identify the'big five' personality traits that psychologists identify with each patient: openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism," he added.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise last week announced the public availability of its HPE Haven OnDemand Machine Learning as a Service. The Microsoft Azure cloud-based platform provides more than 60 APIs and services that deliver deep learning analytics on a variety of data, including text, audio, images, social Web and video. Launched in beta in 2014, HPE Haven OnDemand has more than 12,750 registered developers generating millions of API calls per week, the company said. Usage- and SLA-based pricing for enterprise-class delivery to support production deployment also are available. "We're bringing a unique solution to the market built on almost a decade of experience in advanced analytics and machine learning that has been proven," said Jeff Veis, VP of marketing for big data at HPE. "We have leveraged this experience into both the design and approach that we have adopted for Haven OnDemand," he told the E-Commerce Times.
