Modernizing the Analytics and Data Science Lifecycle for the Scalable Enterprise: The SEAL Method
Data Con LA 2020
Description
It’s no secret that the roots of Data Science date back to the 1960’s and were first mainstreamed in the 1990’s with the emergence of Data Mining. This occurred when commercially affordable computers started offering the horsepower and storage necessary to perform advanced statistics to scale.
However, the words “to scale” have evolved over time. The leap to “Big Data” is only one serial aspect of growth. Beyond the typical 1-off studies that catalyzed the field of Data Mining, Data Science now fulfills enterprise and multi-enterprise use cases spanning much broader and deeper data sets and integrations. For example, AI and Machine Learning frameworks can interoperate with a variety of other systems to drive alerting, feedback loops, predictive frameworks, prescriptive engines, continual learning, and more. The deployment of AI/ML processes themselves often involves integration with contemporary DevOps tools.
Now segue to SEAL – the Scalable Enterprise Analytic Lifecycle. In this presentation, you’ll learn how to cover the major bases of a modern Data Science projects – and Citizen Data Science as well – from conception, learning, and evaluation through integration, implementation, monitoring, and continual improvement. And as the name implies, your deployments will be performant and scale as expected in today’s environments.
