Agenda • Quick Audience Survey • Why Is This Important? • Integration Scenarios • Review Azure Machine Learning Workbench • Demo • Q&A
• Making Decisions with Data • Descriptive > Predictive > Prescriptive • Command Control via Power BI • Trust but Verify • Understanding what the algorithms, models, and machines are doing to us! • Use Power BI to question everything happening with the data • Prove the ROI • Show and Tell a story that is impactful to the organization • Steer clear of Data Science jargon when presenting to citizens!
Who is Solving What?

Integration Scenarios Plentiful Options • Batch • Real-Time • On-Demand Complexity & Skillsets • Latency/Data Prep/Cost • SQL/R/Python/Azure
Azure Machine Learning Workbench Professional Data Science Tool Enhanced Data Preparation Model Management Model Experimentation Bridges On-Premise, Hybrid, & Cloud
AML Workbench Details Deployment Targets: How is this different from AML Paa. S? How much does it cost? • Docker Containers (Local or Azure) • Virtual Machines (Azure) • SQL Server Machine Learning Server (Local or Azure)* • Azure Io. T Edge* Integration with Visual Studio AI Tools *These deployment targets are not currently in preview yet but are on the roadmap Excellent Companion Tool for Power BI Solution Builders!
Power BI Challenges for AML Workbench • • • Data Profiling is not easy enough and many don’t know how to approach Working with “Big Data” can be cumbersome Cleansing capabilities are excellent but not as rich as AMLW. No seamless Integration with GIT or other code repositories Power BI Adoption Speedbumps: • Hard data challenges (complicated transforms) might have to go to the ETL Team • Performance data challenges might go to Database Team (EDW, Cubes, In-memory) • Functional challenges – I can’t do X with PBD and I don’t know how to write R Scripts
