Spotlight: 0xdata

Just learned about 0xdata open source project (pronounced hex-data). It has a library called H2O for predictive analytics that can work either standalone or on top of Hadoop map reduce. H2O has interfaces to Scala and Java, and also R.

So far  H2O supports generalized linear models, decision trees and K-means clustering. According to their website they have Netflix and Trulia as customers.

Anyone who is interested in learning more about 0xdata is welcome to attend our 3rd GraphLab Conference where 0xdata will give a demo of their H2O library.
