Broad support for predictive algorithms.

ADAPA supports an extensive collection of statistical and data mining algorithms. These are:

Clustering Models (Distribution-Based, Center-Based, and 2-Step Clustering)
Decision Trees (for classification and regression) together with multiple missing value handling strategies (Default Child, Last Prediction, Null Prediction, Weighted Confidence, Aggregate Nodes)
Naive Bayes Classifiers
Neural Networks (Back-Propagation, Radial-Basis Function, and Neural-Gas)
Regression Models (Linear, Polynomial, and Logistic) and General Regression Models (General Linear, Ordinal Multinomial, Generalized Linear)
Support Vector Machines (for regression and multi-class and binary classification)
Scorecards (point allocation for categorical, continuous, and complex attributes)

Model interfaces: pre- and post-processing.

Additionally, ADAPA supports a myriad of functions for implementing data pre- and post-processing. These include:

Value Mapping
Discretization
Normalization
Scaling
and much much more

Automatic conversion (and correction) for older versions of PMML.

ADAPA consumes model files that conform to PMML, version 3.2. If your model development environment exports an older version, ADAPA will automatically convert your file into a 3.2 compliant format. It will also correct a number of common problems found in PMML generated by some popular modeling tools, allowing the models to work as intended.

Web-based model management and interactive scoring.

Model management: Predictive models are deployed through an intuitive, Web-based management console (the ADAPA Console) that allows you to manage the deployment of models in a central repository.
Model verification: The ADAPA Console includes a model validation test, allowing models to be verified for correctness. By providing ADAPA a test file containing input data and expected results for a model, the engine will report any deviations from expected results, greatly enhancing traceability of errors and debugging of model deployment issues.
Batch-scoring: The console also provides functionality to upload a (compressed) CSV data file and batch-scores it against any of the deployed models. Results are returned in the same format and may be downloaded for further processing and visualization.

Simplified integration via SOA.

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) principles simplify integration with existing IT infrastructure. Since ADAPA publishes all deployed models as a Web-Service, you can score data records against any of your models deployed from within your own environment. With the simple execution of a web service call, you are able to leverage the power of predictive models on-demand or in real-time.

On-demand predictive analytics solution.

ADAPA on the Cloud is a fully hosted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution. You only pay for the service and the capacity that is used, eliminating the necessity for expensive software licenses and in-house hardware resources. As the business grows, ADAPA on the Cloud provides a cost-effective expansion path, for example, by adding multiple ADAPA instances for scalability or failover. The SaaS model removes the burden for you to manage a scalable, on-demand computing infrastructure.

At any given time, launch one or more instances using the ADAPA Control Center Web interface. For each instance, select the most appropriate instance type: “small”, “large”, “extra-large”, or “high-CPU” (medium or extra-large).

Private instance for predictive models.

We provide you with a single tenant architecture. The service is implemented as a private, dedicated instance of ADAPA that is dedicated to your predictive models. Only you have access to the ADAPA instance(s) via HTTPS. Models and data never share the same engine with other clients. Launching and terminating instances is done through the secure ADAPA Control Center.

Trusted, secure, scalable cloud infrastructure.

Zementis leverages Amazon Web Services providing on-demand infrastructure for ADAPA on the Cloud. The Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) offers utility computing with virtually unlimited scalability.
