Pluggable Computational Engines
Inference is fully compatible with "best-practices" sofware from a variety of scripting languages and data-analysis platforms that serve as statistical, computational and graphic visualization engines. Platforms such as R, Python, Matlab, SAS, can be easily deployed using Inference.
Inference Data-Analysis Services uses a pluggable architecture that enables the user to select a data-analysis engine deployment that meets their specific business needs. Deployment choices include the following:
- Desktop-configured installation
- Centralized server installation to ensure consistency and compliance in data-analysis across the entire data-analysis team
- Multiple distributed server installations (server farm/cluster) to permit distributing large data analysis loads in the enterprise
- Multiple parallel processors (multiprocessor) installation to permit a dramatic decrease in time to completion of large data-analysis computational tasks
