Overview

The purpose of the service is to ensure that data protocols and pipelines are adequate to the AI application developed by the customer. The service can be delivered at different stages of product maturity to ensure that it can provide targeted testing when it is most useful. During earlier product development stages, the service concentrates on data collection, quality and storage protocols, whilst, at later stages, attention can be extended to scalability, access and control mechanisms.

The success of AI applications is almost without exception dependent on the quality of the data that is used during the training and testing phases. Nonetheless, ensuring data quality is often treated as a lesser detail. The same applies to data handling, the process by which data is collected, stored and accessed.

"Data pipeline evaluation for AI applications” addresses the above by providing a dedicated service to test the adequacy of the customer data pipelines or protocols for the AI product.

Before the service: A company has established data handling protocols that may be inadequate for optimal product development. The sources of data may be of limited quality. The collection and storage protocols may be poorly designed or implemented. Access to data may be cumbersome. Data may not be sufficiently secured. Redundancy protocols may be insufficient. All the above may result in an AI application that is of low quality, difficult to maintain or where data leakage may easily occur.

After the service: The company receives a detailed assessment and customised recommendations. For example, the customer can receive a thorough review of the adequacy of the current data handling setup, with potential weakness or identified bottlenecks. In addition, the customer can receive a set of recommendations for addressing shortcomings.

The service can provide the company with advice on both software and hardware solutions that can enable the AI solution to reach its full potential thus further enhancing the likelihood of operational success.
