This IDC study represents a vendor assessment of the advanced machine learning software platforms market through the IDC MarketScape model. This assessment discusses both quantitative and qualitative characteristics that provide guidance about advanced machine learning software platform vendors and their offerings. This IDC MarketScape covers a variety of vendors participating in the advanced machine learning software platforms market. The evaluation is based on a comprehensive and rigorous framework that assesses vendors relative to the criteria and to one another and highlights the factors expected to be the most influential for success in the market in both the short term and the long term.

"Success in the rapidly evolving AI software platforms market requires advanced machine learning software platform vendors to continue to innovate and provide tools to help customers accelerate development and deployment and monitoring of machine learning models," says David Schubmehl, research director, AI Software Platforms at IDC.
