Google Cloud may be a good place but it is not as easy to understand as IBM Watson is. Google Cloud has a lot of things and it is terrifying for a beginner. You need hours of specialization for that. On other hand, anyone can start using IBM Waston just by the following documentation.

AWS Sagemaker is a well-established product that supports on-demand notebooks, data pipelines, and so on, however, it also comes with the learning overhead of the whole AWS stack. It does allow per-defined models, but the benefit of using IBM Watson Studio is that users are able to leverage per-trained models and significantly reduce training time.

Organization of data, use of data, manage the data, visualize the data is easy. Use of the environment for any project. We can use python or R or Scala in the notebook. Data cleaning a remarkable feature of IMB Watson Studio. Deployment of ML models is easy. Monitoring the Models is also easy.

Easy to use, but still requires a lot of coding to use. There is no ranking of models used and models are not persistent, which means you have to keep running the models again every time you leave the session. The filesystem is clunky and need to keep authorizing Google Drive to save any datasets.

The main reason I personally changed over from Azure ML Studio is because it lacked any support for significant custom modelling with packages and services such as TensorFlow, scikit-learn, Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit and Spark ML. IBM Watson Studio provides these services and does so in a well integrated and easy to use fashion making it a preferable service over the other services that I have personally used.

IBM offers a deep neural network training workflow, with a flow editor interface similar to the one used in Azure ML Studio. However, the custom build modeling in IBM has notebooks such as Jupiter to program models manually using popular frameworks like TensorFlow, sci-kit-learn, PyTorch, XGboost, PMML, and IBM SPSS.

With my experience on Jupyter Notebook I think both are good and currently more comfortable with Watson Studio product. With Jupyter it's open source (free) is always good. "Lots of languages (50), data visualization with Seaborn, work with the building blocks in a flexible and integrated manner • modern JavaScript development: npm-based packaging, typescript, phosphor.js, • clean model/view separation, • well separated public/private APIs, fully extensible by third parties, high performance and Design."

As an IBM Business Partner, we are financially incentivized to recommend and deploy IBM solutions where it makes sense to do so for the customer. Against other solutions, few have the governance and security that IBM offers, which is essential for any kind of work in highly regulated industries. IBM's solution may not be the sexiest, but it's the most bulletproof.

Watson vs. DATA

Watson Studio was our choice in data management because its "all-in-one" packaging. Watson studio also stood out to us because it was more affordable and free for our organization to try out. We also greatly value the open source ecosystem Watson Studio has fostered.

  • AWS
AWS stacks up very favourably against Watson Studio, and in fact this is what the customer ultimately chose over Watson Studio after an evaluation period due to the sophistication, maturity, security, and capabilities of the AWS components. The downsides of AWS are having to pay for every byte downloaded, and the steep learning curve. The advantages of the Watson Studio environment over AWS are: better support for hybrid deployments (not everything has to go in the cloud); ease of integration with other Watson APIs and components (e.g. NLU, Speech to Text, etc.), and cheaper usage costs

The learning curve for DSX is smaller compared to other tools. The data science user base often has preferred tools that they have used previously which are often not DSX which makes adoption of DSX by trained data scientists harder than new users.

IBM DSx is more comprehensive and easy to use, IBM Data science experience has many connectors to the data source and guarantees the portability with your old projects.
