Operational Deployment of Predictive Solutions: Lost in Translation? Not with PMML

Traditionally, the deployment of predictive solutions have been, to put it mildly, cumbersome. As shown in the Figure below, data mining scientists work hard to analyze historical data and to build the best predictive solutions out it. Engineers, on the other hand, are usually responsible for bringing these solutions to life, by recoding them into a format suitable for production deployment.
