Managing your ML lifecycle with Azure Databricks and Azure MLParashar Shah
Machine learning development has new complexities beyond software development. There are a myriad of tools and frameworks which make it hard to track experiments, reproduce results and deploy machine learning models. Learn how you can accelerate and manage your end-to-end machine learning lifecycle on Azure Databricks using MLflow and Azure ML to reliably build, share and deploy machine learning applications using Azure Databricks. This is based on our talk at //build - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pe_OH07wAYc and https://mybuild.techcommunity.microsoft.com/sessions/76976
Automated machine learning (automated ML) automates feature engineering, algorithm and hyperparameter selection to find the best model for your data. The mission: Enable automated building of machine learning with the goal of accelerating, democratizing and scaling AI. This presentation covers some recent announcements of technologies related to Automated ML, and especially for Azure. The demonstrations focus on Python with Azure ML Service and Azure Databricks.
During this presentation, after walking through a few ways to use MLflow on Azure directly, we'll cover how upcoming solutions from our group leverage MLflow for core functionality. BenchML is a new repository that aims to provide consumers of prebuilt ML endpoints visibility into the performance of each public offering for a given dataset as well as comparing results across multiple offerings. Using MLflow, BenchML is able to remain cloud-agnostic and offer a delightful local experience while leveraging the aforementioned integration to provide Azure users with a fully managed experience.
Speaker Bio: Akshaya is an engineer in the AI Platform at Microsoft, having released both GA versions of Azure Machine Learning over the years and the OSS repo MMLSpark. As the recent version of Azure ML pivoted to become more of an open platform rather than a managed product, his focus has shifted outward for open-source platform definitions for cloud-scale implementations and focused on MLflow for the Azure ML managed tracking store.

Microsoft has several Azure certifications including DP-100 (Designing and Implementing a Data Science Solution on Azure). Until this month, the exam had been in beta: however, the presenter has just passed the exam (first try). The purpose of this event is to share a viewpoint on how to study for the exam. Today, there are multiple ways to develop and deliver and deploy R or Python or Spark or deep learning models on Azure. The differences are important for this exam.
Microsoft has released Automated ML technologies for developers through ML.NET, Azure ML Service, and Azure Databricks. This presenter is a data scientist and Microsoft architect, and will give a comprehensive overview of the utility and use case of this automated technology for production solutions. The presentation includes code you can try now.

Intro to big data analytics using microsoft machine learning server with sparkAlex Zeltov
Alex Zeltov - Intro to Big Data Analytics using Microsoft Machine Learning Server with Spark
By combining enterprise-scale R analytics software with the power of Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark, Microsoft R Server for HDP or HDInsight gives you the scale and performance you need. Multi-threaded math libraries and transparent parallelization in R Server handle up to 1000x more data and up to 50x faster speeds than open-source R, which helps you to train more accurate models for better predictions. R Server works with the open-source R language, so all of your R scripts run without changes.
Microsoft Machine Learning Server is your flexible enterprise platform for analyzing data at scale, building intelligent apps, and discovering valuable insights across your business with full support for Python and R. Machine Learning Server meets the needs of all constituents of the process – from data engineers and data scientists to line-of-business programmers and IT professionals. It offers a choice of languages and features algorithmic innovation that brings the best of open source and proprietary worlds together.
R support is built on a legacy of Microsoft R Server 9.x and Revolution R Enterprise products. Significant machine learning and AI capabilities enhancements have been made in every release. In 9.2.1, Machine Learning Server adds support for the full data science lifecycle of your Python-based analytics.
This meetup will NOT be a data science intro or R intro to programming. It is about working with data and big data on MLS .
- How to Scale R
- Work with R and Hadoop + Spark
-Demo of MLS on HDP/HDInsight server with RStudio
- How to operationalize deploying models using MLS Webservice operationalization features on MLS Server or on the cloud Azure ML (PaaS) offering. Speaker Bio:
Alex Zeltov is Big Data Solutions Architect / Software Engineer / Programmer Analyst / Data Scientist with over 19 years of industry experience in Information Technology and most recently in Big Data and Predictive Analytics. He currently works as Global black belt Technical Specialist in Microsoft where he concentrates on Big Data and Advanced Analytics use cases. Previously to joining Microsoft he worked as a Sr. Solutions Engineer at Hortonworks where he specialized in HDP and HDF platforms.
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

4. Prioritize Data Quality with Automation:
Automated Data Validation: Implement automated data quality checks to identify and rectify errors at the source, minimizing downstream issues.
Data Lineage Tracking: Track the flow of data throughout the ecosystem, ensuring transparency and facilitating root cause analysis for errors.
5. Cultivate a Data-Driven Mindset:
Metrics-Driven Performance Management: Align KPIs and performance metrics with data-driven insights to ensure actionable decision making.
Data Storytelling Workshops: Equip stakeholders with the skills to translate complex data findings into compelling narratives that drive action.
Benefits of a Precise Ecosystem:
Sharpened Focus: Precise access and clear roles ensure everyone works with the most relevant data, maximizing efficiency.
Actionable Insights: Strategic analytics and automated quality checks lead to more reliable and actionable data insights.
Continuous Improvement: Data-driven performance management fosters a culture of learning and continuous improvement.
Sustainable Growth: Empowered by data, organizations can make informed decisions to drive sustainable growth and innovation.
By focusing on these precise actions, organizations can create an empowered data analytics ecosystem that delivers real value by driving data-driven decisions and maximizing the return on their data investment.
