Machine learning allows us to build predictive analytics solutions of tomorrow - these solutions allow us to better diagnose and treat patients, correctly recommend interesting books or movies, and even make the self-driving car a reality. Microsoft Azure Machine Learning (Azure ML) is a fully-managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for building these predictive analytics solutions. It is very easy to build solutions with it, helping to overcome the challenges most businesses have in deploying and using machine learning. In this presentation, we will take a look at how to create ML models with Azure ML Studio and deploy those models to production in minutes.

Editor's Notes
- Machine learning allows us to build predictive analytics solutions of tomorrow - these solutions allow us to better diagnose and treat patients, correctly recommend interesting books or movies, and even make the self-driving car a reality. Microsoft Azure Machine Learning (Azure ML) is a fully-managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for building these predictive analytics solutions. It is very easy to build solutions with it, helping to overcome the challenges most businesses have in deploying and using machine learning. In this presentation, we will take a look at how to create ML models with Azure ML Studio and deploy those models to production in minutes.
- Fluff, but point is I bring real work experience to the session
- My goal is to give you a high level overview of all the technologies so you know where to start Make you a hero
- Advanced Analytics, or Business Analytics, refers to future-oriented analysis that can be used to help drive changes and improvements in business practices. It is made up of four phases: Descriptive Analytics: What is generally referred to as “business intelligence”, this phase is where a lot of digital information is captured. Then this big data is condensed into smaller, more useful nuggets of information, creating an understanding of the correlations between those nuggets to find out why something is happening (“Diagnostic Analytics”). In short, you are providing insight into what has happened to uncover trends and patterns. An example is Netflix using historic sales and customer data to improve their recommendation engine. Predictive analytics: Utilizes a variety of statistical, modeling, data mining, and machine learning techniques to study recent and historical data, thereby allowing analysts to make predictions, or forecasts, about the future. In short, it helps model and forecast what might happen. For example, taking sales data, social media data, and weather data to forecast the product demand for a certain region and to adjust production. Or you can use predictive analytics to determine outcomes such as whether a customer will “leave or stay” or “buy or not buy.” Prescriptive analytics: Goes beyond predicting future outcomes by also suggesting actions to benefit from the predictions and showing the decision maker the implications of each decision option. Prescriptive analytics not only anticipates what will happen and when it will happen, but also why it will happen. The output is a decision using simulation and optimization. In short, it seeks to determine the best solution or preferred course of action among various choices. For example, airlines sift thought millions of flight itineraries to set an optimal price at any given time based on supply and demand. Also, prescriptive analytics in healthcare can be used to guide clinician actions by making treatment recommendations based on models that use relevant historical intervention and outcome data.
- Our embrace of open source continues with our GA release by now adding to our full support of R with new first class support for SQLite and Python. Just as you can with R, you can drop your custom Python code directly into ML Studio. You can then combine your custom work with our world-class algorithms such as learning with counts, which allows you to digest terabytes of data – truly a Big Data solution in the cloud.
- And, as I’ve mentioned, no other vendor offers the ability to deploy with one click – you can literally see the button here. It is simply powerful to be able to put your models into production and increase their usability for businesses, the community and the world. And we’re enabling the community of Azure ML users by offering an in-product Gallery where you can discover solutions built by others, drop those directly into your workspace for experimentation and learning, as well as easily share your own work in the gallery with the same ease of use you experience with web service production. You can try this out by logging on to azure.com/ml and clicking “get started” to try our perpetually free version.
- Microsoft’s Big Data vision in the cloud is to enable organizations to solve large, complex problems end-to-end, from storing and managing TBs of data without investing in hardware and software, to seamless integration with the 1 billion users of Excel. As part of this vision, Microsoft offers Azure Machine Learning, designed to democratize the complex task of advanced analytics. Advanced analytics is using products like Azure Machine Learning to find new and actionable insights that traditional approaches to business intelligence are unlikely to discover. An easy way to think about this is thinking about a dashboard. Today when confined by only BI tools without a connection to machine learning, it is solely the job of the human looking at the spreadsheet to gain insights and react to the data. But a human can only consume so many variables. A computer, on the other hand, can consume a great deal more variables to provide much deeper insight on the data. Humans can then react to the data to make decisions that drive competitive advantage, as well as program the computer further to recognize important patterns in the future. This is why we say beyond business intelligence – machine intelligence. The accessibility of our solution starts with set up. Previously you needed to provision your workspace on-premises for machine learning, also thinking about server space and a host of other considerations. Today you can get started with just a browser. With only an Azure subscription, you can take advantage of the full functionality of Azure Machine Learning within minutes. Taking a test drive is even easier, click Get Started off azure.com/ml and with simply a Microsoft ID you’re off to the races. Another limit with other machine learning solutions are siloed environments that only allow for one programming language or make changing from one algorithm to another time consuming and complex. With Azure ML, you can experience the power of choice. That choice expands to language, with both Python and R being first class citizens of Azure ML, or algorithm. You can choose from hundreds of algorithms, including business-tested ones running our Microsoft businesses today. And swapping out algorithms to land on the right one for you is done with a click. Additionally you can drop in custom R and Python code – your “special sauce” – and mix and match that with the other options in the tool. Most revolutionary of all you can deploy solutions in minutes as a web service, which is simply a url which can connect to any data, anywhere – including on-premises or in another cloud environment. The ability to put a model into production almost immediately, as well as revise it easily, is unique to Microsoft and allows companies to stay on top of the changing business landscape more effectively than is offered by any other provider today. We even take that a step further, allowing model developers to connect to the world with our Machine Learning Marketplace, where they can publish finished solutions and APIs with their own brand and business model. Developers can also discover machine learning solutions there without any machine learning skills needed – the data science is inside. Check it out at https://datamarket.azure.com/.
