Mastering Azure Machine Learning

2. Choosing a machine learning service in Azure

In the previous chapter, we learned what an end-to-end Machine Learning (ML) process looks like. We went through the different steps, from data exploration to data pre-processing, training, optimization, deployment, and operation. In this chapter, we want to find out how to best navigate through all available ML services in Azure and how to select the right one for your goal.

This is the service that we will use throughout the book to implement an end-to-end ML pipeline.

First, we will take a look at the different Azure services for ML and Artificial Intelligence (AI), and discuss their ...
