Organizations that want to prove the value of AI by developing, deploying, and managing machine learning models at scale can now do so quickly using the DataRobot AI Platform on Microsoft Azure. DataRobot on Azure accelerates the machine learning lifecycle with advanced capabilities for rapid experimentation across new data sources and multiple problem types. DataRobot identifies and recommends models that are ready to move into production by automatically testing and comparing thousands of models, while those already in production are continuously monitored to ensure performance and compliance. This generates reliable business insights and sustains AI-driven value across the enterprise.
DataRobot is available on Azure as an AI Platform Single-Tenant SaaS, eliminating the time and cost of an on-premises implementation. AI Platform Single-Tenant SaaS are fully managed by DataRobot and replace disparate machine learning tools, simplifying management. Unique to DataRobot, this service helps customers with specific data management or data sovereignty needs, as well as organizations interested in outsourcing the IT management and set up of new software purchases. Reducing time to value in deploying, upgrading, and managing the AI infrastructure, AI Platform Single-Tenant SaaS allows customers to focus on generating more value, faster, with AI.
Enterprises that use DataRobot on Azure get the knowledge, experience, and best practices of data scientists from DataRobot. They also gain access to more than 200 products and cloud services on the Azure cloud platform designed to help clients create new solutions to solve today’s business challenges. Customers can build, run, and manage applications across multiple clouds, on-premises, and at the edge, with the tools of their choice. The DataRobot AI Platform seamlessly integrates with Azure cloud services, including Azure Machine Learning, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2 (ADLS), Azure Synapse Analytics, and Azure SQL database.
