On-Premise Machine Learning with XGBoost (Katana 19.1)

Happy to announce Katana 19.1 release with complete on-premise support for Machine Learning.

You can run Machine Learning (ML) models on Cloud (Amazon SageMaker, Google Cloud Machine Learning, etc.). I believe it is important to understand how to run Machine Learning in your own environment too. Without this knowledge ML skills set would not be complete. There are multiple reasons for this. Not everyone is using Cloud and you must provide on-premise solution. Without getting your hands dirty and configuring environment yourself, you would miss an exciting opportunity to learn more about ML.
