Data and Machine Learning (ML) technologies are now widespread and adopted by literally all industries. Although recent advancements in the field have reached an unthinkable level of maturity, many organizations still struggle with turning these advances into tangible profits. Unfortunately, many ML projects get stuck in a proof-of-concept stage without ever reaching customers and generating revenue. In order to effectively adopt ML technologies, enterprises need to build the right business cases as well as to be ready to face the inevitable technical challenges. In this talk, we will share some common pitfalls, lessons learned, and engineering practices, faced while building customer-facing enterprise ML products. In particular, we will focus on the engineering that delivers real-time audience insights everyday to thousands of marketers via the Helixa’s market research platform.
During the talk you will learn:
- An overview of the Helixa ML end-to-end system
- Useful engineering practices and recommended tools (PyData stack, AWS, Alluxio, scikit-learn, tensorflow, mlflow, jupyter, github, docker, Spark, to name a few..)
- The R&D workflow and how it integrates with the production system
- Infrastructure considerations for scalable and cheap deployment, monitoring, and alerting
- How to leverage modern cloud serverless architectures for data and machine learning applications

In this talk, Ojus Save walks you through a demo of how to build AI applications on Zoom. This demo shows you an AI agent that receives transcript data from RTMS and then decides if it has to create action items based on the transcripts that are received.
In this talk, Sandeep Joshi, , Senior Manager at NVIDIA, shares how to accelerate the data access between GPU and storage for AI. Sandeep will dive into two options: CPU- initiated GPUDirect Storage and GPU-initiated SCADA.
Bin Fan, VP of Technology at Alluxio, introduces how Alluxio, a software layer transparently sits between application and S3 (or other object stores), provides sub-ms time to first byte (TTFB) solution, with up to 45x lower latency.
