DataRobot architecture
DataRobot is one of the most well-known commercial tools for automated ML (AutoML). It only seems appropriate that the technology meant to automate everything should itself benefit from automation. As you go through the data science process, you will realize that there are many tasks that are repetitive in nature and standardized enough to warrant automation. DataRobot has done an excellent job of capturing such tasks to increase the speed, scale, and efficiency of building and deploying ML models. We will cover these aspects in great detail in this book. Having said that, there are still many tasks and aspects of this process that still require decisions, actions, and tradeoffs to be done by data scientists and data analysts. We will highlight these as well. The following figure shows a high-level view of the DataRobot architecture:
