Options for Machine Learning-as-a-Service: The Big Four AIs Battle it Out

Conclusion:
As-a-Service machine learning (ML) is increasingly affordable, easily accessible and with the introduction of self-learning capabilities that automatically build and test multiple models, able to be leveraged by non-specialists.
As more data moves into Cloud-based storage – either as part of migrating core systems to the Cloud or the use of Cloud data lakes/data warehouses – the use of ML as-a-Service (MLaaS) will grow sharply.
This paper summarises options from four leading Cloud MLaaS providers: IBM, Microsoft, Google and Amazon.
