Amazon Tensor Flow vs. IBM watsonx.ai

A well-suited scenario for using AWS Tensor Flow is when having a project with a geographically dispersed team, a client overseas and large data to use for training. AWS Tensor Flow is less appropriate when working for clients in regions where it hasn't been allowed yet for use. Since smaller clients are in regions where AWS Tensor Flow hasn't been allowed for use, and those clients traditionally don't have enough hardware, this situation deters a wider use of the tool.

I have built a code accelerator tool for one of the IBM product implementation. Although there was a heavy lifting at the start to train the model on specifics of the packaged solution library and ways of working; the efficacy of the model is astounding. Having said that, watsonx.ai is very well suited for customer service automation, healthcare data analytics, financial fraud detection, and sentiment analysis kind of projects. The Watsonx.ai look and feel is little confusing but I understand over a period of time , it will improve dramatically as well. I do feel that Watsonx.ai has certain limitations from cross-platform deployment flexibility. If an organization is deeply invested in a multi-cloud environment, Watson's integration on other cloud platforms may not be seamless comported to other AI platforms.

• Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) allows resizable compute capacity in the cloud, providing the necessary elasticity to provide services for both, small and medium-sized businesses.
• Tensor Flow allows us to train our models much faster than in our on-premise equipment.
• Most of the pre-trained models are easy to adapt to our clients' needs.

• It allows specialists to apply several base models for specific subtasks in the field of NLP.
• Gives the availability of many models developed for AI enhancement for different solutions.
• Has incorporated functionality for data governance and security to support access to AI tools by multiple users.

• SageMaker isn't available in all regions. This is complicated for some clients overseas.
• For larger instances, when using a GPU, it takes a while to talk to a customer service representative to ask for a limit increase. Given this, it's recommendable to ask in advance for a limit increase in more expensive and larger cases; otherwise, SageMaker will set the limit to zero by default.
• Since the data has to be stored in S3 and copied to training, it doesn't allow to test and debug locally. Therefore, we have to wait a lot to check everything after every trail.

• Accessing the many different cloud features and tools requires spending time to understand the structure.
• IBM offers so much but it is often hard to find what you are looking for.
• Understanding the cost implications of using features and tools requires some effort.

I needed some time to understand the different parts of the web UI. It was slightly overwhelming in the beginning. However, after some time, it made sense, and I like the UI now. In terms of functionality, there are many useful features that make your life easy, like jumping to a section and giving me a deployment space to deploy my models easily.

Microsoft Azure is better than Amazon Tensor Flow because it provides easier and pre-built capabilities such as Anomaly Detection, Recommendation, and Ranking. AWS is better than IBM Watson ML Studio because it has direct and prebuilt clustering capabilities AWS, like IBM Watson ML Studio, has powerful built-in algorithms, providing a stronger platform when comparing it with MS Azure ML Services and Google ML Engine.

• Positive: It has allowed us to work with our overseas teams without any large hardware investing.
• Positive: Pre-trained models significantly reduce the time to develop solutions for our clients.
• Negative: Since it's a relatively new tool, you have to be careful about not paying for large errors while learning to use the tool.
