Introduction to Azure Machine Learning
Azure Cloud Service
Prebuilt standard models for data discovery and prediction (unsupervised learning or supervised learning)
Framework for building new and/or selling models
Allow you to build a model using R or/and standard algorithms
About finding an algorithm/model for determining an outcome (well-defined problem – e.g. given a set of features what is the probability of x, what is the predicted price of selling a house, what classification does an ”entity” belong to)
Trained AND scored based on a dataset
Inputs is a predefined set of features that can be used to predict an outcome
Azure ML vs. SSAS Data Mining
Azure ML
Pay as you Go
Fixed set of algorithms extensible by using R
Easy visual interface
Cloud (first)
Batch / online requests
SSAS Data Mining
Free (With SQL Server)
Fixed set of algoritms (somewhat outdated)
Integrated in Visual Studio
On-premise
Batch requests
Good for data discovery (thru Excel add-in)
Extensability
R• Access to over 400 of the most popular CRAN packages
• Your own custom code
Python• Python Tools for Visual Studio
(Check Azure ML Blog)
• Not yet integrated in ML Studio
DEMOBuilding an experiment to test/train/select a model
Building an experiment to publish a model
Testing model manually
Consuming a model from Power Query
Other relevant services in Azure
Azure Stream Analytics• Think Stream Insight In The Cloud
Azure Data Factory• Think Integration Services In The Cloud (for cloud and on-prem)
Azure Service Bus
Azure Event Hubs
Azure Intelligent Systems Service• All related to Internet Of Things
