Streamlit is an open-source Python library designed to make it easy to build custom web-apps for machine learning and data science, from the company of the same name in San Francisco. Streamlit also hosts its community's Streamlit Component offered via API to help users get started.
Dataiku DSS is very well suited to handle large datasets and projects which requires a huge team to deliver results. This allows users to collaborate with each other while working on individual tasks. The workflow is easily streamlined and every action is backed up, allowing users to revert to specific tasks whenever required. While Dataiku DSS works seamlessly with all types of projects dealing with structured datasets, I haven't come across projects using Dataiku dealing with images/audio signals. But a workaround would be to store the images as vectors and perform the necessary tasks.
- Don't want to pay Tableau $1,000 / seat? Use Streamlit - Want fully custom views and navigation? Use Streamlit - Want access to Machine Learning and not just your dev team? Use Streamlit - Want to keep things internal and secure? Use Streamlit - Want your Data Science team to be able to crank out projects quickly? Use Streamlit - Sick of Jupyter Notebooks and Business Leaders not understanding them? Use Streamlit Our D.S. strategy has moved completely to delivering pages in Streamlit. I can hand an executive a Jupyter notebook and it'll get lost in translation. I can give them sign-in access to a page and they can answer all of their own "What-If?" questions! We've used Streamlit to productize our Data Science and Machine Learning capabilities.
Recent Security issues (they quickly released an update to combat this though...)
Requires a bit of HTML knowledge to really customize. If you're going quick, you don't need HTML though. Streamlit commands will pump your page out fast.
As I have described earlier, the intuitiveness of this tool makes it great as well as the variety of users that can use this tool. Also, the plugins available in their repository provide solutions to various data science problems.
The support team is very helpful, and even when we discover the missing features, after providing enough rational reasons and requirements, they put into it their development pipeline for the future release.
Strictly for Data Science operations, Anaconda can be considered as a subset of Dataiku DSS. While Anaconda supports Python and R programming languages, Dataiku also provides this facility, but also provides GUI to creates models with just a click of a button. This provides the flexibility to users who do not wish to alter the model hyperparameters in greater depths. Writing codes to extract meaningful data is time consuming compared to Dataiku's ability to perform feature engineering and data transformation through click of a button.
I started using Streamlit when it first came out and thought it was really useful and powerful. A few years later and they've really hit their stride! The features / widgets / materials they provide have been well researched, well designed, and well implemented. I will take Streamlit to any future companies I go to as well as be a strong promoter wherever I'm currently at. It's free. It's easy to use. It is really powerful. Sure? You could go pay for a larger system but your Data Science team should be able to handle Streamlit easily. I'd argue a non-technical person spending a few weeks in python could pick up Streamlit really quickly.
