OpenText Magellan is Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning democratised. Combining over 25 years of product development (BIRT, Actuate and NStein) with open-source technologies (Apache Spark), Magellan brings AI and insights from complex algorithms to the wider community of non-technical users. Spark brings both power and its MLlib (Machine Learning Libraries) to rapidly ingest, process and output data as powerful insights. Data Scientists can publish their fully evaluated \'pipeline\' of algorithms with their wider business users who can then simply drag-and-drop their newly refreshed and available data onto those algorithms, and get those important insights instantly and share those insights with key stakeholders all through Magellan! That\'s drag-and-drop AI.
