Welcome to this demonstration. Today we'll be showing how Infinia can be used with Apache Spark. Most AI workflows follow a common set of data functions, data collection, pre-processing, tagging, and indexing that form the data preparation stages of a data pipeline.Once the data is ready, it then is used for training and validation stages before finally being deployed once the model has achieved a certain level of predictive accuracy. Infinia is a key component of this workflow. The Infinia architecture shi ...
