IBM watsonx.data is an AI and data platform for business with which enterprises can easily curate, test, deploy and embed in Artificial intelligence and Data science in our business, manage all the data sources and accelerate responsible AI workflow which are tightly coupled, all on one platform. This impact of AI we can trust the data across your business.
  • It's Open source technology, provides variety of use cases and compliance requirements.
  • Its trusted platform designed with principles of transparency, responsibility and governance
  • watsonx is designed for targeted enterprise at business domains.
Cons
  • IBM is bit pricy while comparing to other competitors in the market.
  • customisation of models is difficult at times for use cases.
  • It lags in performance at times, while the parent server needs a restart.
IBM watsonx.data platform is best suited for scale AI workloads from single unit data store, which is only data store that is open hybrid and governed. So the customer trust and safety is never comprised. But this platform lags performance for large scale data sets and we need to restart the main server.

Easy to use tool for data analysis.

The access goes to both structured, semi-structured and unstructured info. IBM watsonx.data incorporates cognitive computing, natural language processing, machine learning, analysis of data, assistant service, language models and translations, all these ways to bring people together and hence improve team productivity. It does seamless integration. It is powered by very powerful features that serve the purpose of current data and much API and SDK support make the working very easy.
  • Offers API and SDK support for easy operation.
  • Increases team productivity.
  • Seamless data integration.
Cons
  • Complex data interface may be challenging for beginners.
  • Cost is high.
  • Problems with putting together info from different sources.
The cost is a bit high but IBM watsonx.data meets all my expectations and I will definitely recommend it to others. It is safe to use and protects all our business information. The integration is seamless but it faces difficulties in combining multiple data sources.

For reviewing data it is one of the best tool.

IBM watsonx.data is very powerful and easy to use. A single metadata layer, working on cloud and on-premises setups, makes this the view to see all data from one place. What I found most interesting was the way in which complex analytics were shown with the data. It was just brilliant in the way it managed regular and unstructured data, making me far more productive. IBM watsonx.data has really been my go-to tool for all of my data work.
  • Compatible with other IBM services for easy setup of solutions.
  • Simplifies data infrastructure setup.
  • Easy to use interface for beginners in data research.
Cons
  • High maintenance costs.
  • Lacks faster and easy integrations for advanced analytics.
  • Limited resources speed up data rate.
IBM watsonx.data simplifies data infrastructure setup and this causes users to focus on data insights. It is easy to use for beginners. It also provides learning models and analytics tools, as a result I recommend it.
