As enterprises aim to build better, smarter and automated ML models, teams must also consider ways to validate and manage data before building and deploying applications in the real world. Doing so ensures that the model is based on data that is trusted and built using principles that can be explained. At IBM Research – India, we are working to systematically understand the challenges enterprises face in data quality assessment to help build trust into the model before it is fed to a ML pipeline.

A hybrid cloud environment must be reliable for organizations to adopt it at scale for mission critical needs. Critical functions span across performance, security, compliance, cost of ownership, resilience and elasticity. As businesses become increasingly agile to meet dynamic consumer and market needs, these specifications are evolving at a rapid pace. The reliability of a hybrid cloud environment must support continuous and agile modernization at all levels of the IT stack.
