IBM SPSS Modeler with collaboration

IBM® SPSS® Modeler with collaboration allows interaction with the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository from within the IBM SPSS Modeler interface. Files can be stored and retrieved directly from IBM SPSS Modeler .

In addition, IBM SPSS Modeler streams stored in the repository can be executed as steps within jobs. A job can contain any number of steps, with each step corresponding to a separate file. Relationships defined between the steps determine the processing flow. The job can be scheduled to execute at a specific time, according to a recurrence pattern, or in response to a defined event. Moreover, notifications can be sent to specified recipients to report on individual step and overall job execution status.

Collaboration between IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services and IBM SPSS Modeler is enabled through the use of adapters. These adapters are installed into the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services environment to add the product-specific features. For more information, consult the IBM SPSS Modeler documentation.

Note: If you have a job containing an SPSS Modeler stream that uses an Analytic Server source node, you must allow a direct connection between the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Server and Analytic Server. Otherwise, the job will fail if the firewall blocks the connection between the two servers.
