Other Resources

ML reef is a Machine Learning Operations (ML Ops) platform, aiming to resolve the “data science bottleneck” and the domain knowledge gap. ML reef aims to open the domain of Data Science to non-experts and enables them to relieve the data scientists from major parts of the ML development process. This would remove up to 85% of a data scientists’ workload which can drastically widen the organizations ML Innovation capabilities.
