Measuring your machine learning model will help you understand how well your model is doing, how useful it is, and whether your model can perform better with more data. This is what Algorithmia Insights — a feature of Algorithmia Enterprise MLOps platform — does. Algorithmia platform accelerates your time to value for ML by delivering more models quickly and securely, as it is estimated that 85% of machine learning models never make it to production.
“We all get our credit cards replaced a lot. Our online ecosystem is getting more complex with the number of accounts we have. We wanted to simplify that, and make it less complicated to get those cards back on file,” says Katherine Chavez, Director of Marketing for Strivve (formerly Switch, Inc.).

In this tutorial, we will discuss InfluxDB and its Python client. We will deploy InfluxDB inside a Kubernetes cluster and then use the InfluxDB Python client to send data to InfluxDB.
We created the Elastic Contributor Program to encourage knowledge sharing in our community and to recognize and reward the hard work of our awesome contributors. There are six different contribution types accepted in the program: event organization, presentation, written content, video, translation, and code. In this blog post, we’ll cover how to contribute code in the many free and open projects that Elastic maintains.
