Yahoo & Microsoft open source data analytics tools for Spark & Graph Engine

#Yahoo and #Microsoft have open sourced two data analytics tools that can help businesses to become more data-driven. Yahoo, has decided to open source the #TensorFlowOnSpark software that was created to make #Google ’s #TensorFlow open source framework compatible with the data sets that sit inside #Spark clusters. To grossly simplify this, TensorFlow is an open source software library that users can tap in to for numerical computation using data flow graphs. The company said: “TensorFlowOnSpark brings scalable deep learning to Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark clusters. By combining salient features from deep learning framework TensorFlow and big-data frameworks Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop, TensorFlowOnSpark enables distributed deep learning on a cluster of GPU and CPU servers.” It’s easy to forget that Yahoo has some brilliant technical minds working at the company, what will all the issues regarding the data breaches at the Internet side of the business, but the company has history in the big data world.
