IBM Machine Learning for z/OS details

Simplify model creation

You can build and deploy models through our Visual model builder with easy to use wizards or through our integrated Notebooks. This allows data developers and data scientists to focus on the quality of the models and not the complexities of the process.

Easily deploy models

Once created, models can be deployed instantaneously within our framework. RESTful APIs provided in API details allow applications developers to easily incorporate behavioral models into their code.

Easily manage models

The dashboard provides a health check across all models in the enterprise, offering insight into overall model performance and a quick view of those that need to be retrained.

Ensure model accuracy

Data scientists and engineers can schedule continuous re-evaluations on new data to monitor model accuracy over time and be alerted when performance deteriorates.

Technical details

Software requirements

The z/OS® component requires: IBM z/OS, V2.1 or later. The Linux x86 component requires: Red Hat V7.2, or later, OpenJava SDK V1.8.0. The Linux on Z® component requires: Ubuntu (64-bit) 16.04 or later, OpenSSL 1.0.2g-1ubuntu9.1, openJDK 1.8.0 or later, curl 7.47.0
