Data science with Microsoft

December 22, 2015 By editor

Jan Mulkens recently published an article on Microsoft’s recent rush to enhance it’s data science offering. And, as he illustrates, they have been very busy this year.

He highlights a number of their flagship data science initiatives.

  • Azure Machine Learning
  • Power BI
  • Cortana Analytics Suite
  • Acquisition of Datazen & Revolution Analytics
  • Integration of R in SQL Server

Other significant data science activities at Microsoft this year, in my opinion, include:

  • Prajna
  • The rise of F# as a data science platform
  • The introduction of the Data Science Virtual Machine on Azure

I’m looking forward to what they come up with in 2016.
