Kubernetes: An effortless button for data science

Data Science represents an important evolution in computer science and data processing that is rapidly transforming industries in terms of what we are doing, how we are doing it and using insights to drive decision making, and government agencies want in on the action. Agencies face a growing overload of data that is both incredibly valuable and also becoming increasingly burdensome to collect, process, and analyze. So far, the practice of data science has lived and operated independent of traditional IT operations and practices, but as disciplines are colliding, so are the ways IT organizations are now increasingly supporting the needs of resource-constrained data scientists. Come see how Red Hat and Amazon Web Services (AWS) come together in a single-step application platform service, Red Hat® OpenShift® Service on AWS. Amazon SageMaker works with Red Hat OpenShift on AWS to provide the capabilities needed to help operationalize data science in security-focused environments. Combined, these tools allow data scientists to focus on the tasks that are most time sensitive and provide a soft hand-off for the operations team to handle the model once in production. We will show how to use data science to enhance biometric analysis in this episode.
