Registration, composition, and execution of analytics in a distributed environment

Abstract:

A multi-layer analytics framework is provided that obtains a plurality of analytics from one or more analytics source computing systems. The framework applies a wrapper to each of the analytics, where the wrapper provides a unified interface for executing the analytics regardless of the particular computer programming language used to create the analytics. The framework registers the wrapped analytics in an analytics registry, receives a request to perform an analytics operation on an input dataset, from a request computing system, and automatically generates an analytics pipeline comprising a plurality of wrapped analytics retrieved from the analytics registry. The framework executes the analytics pipeline and returns results of executing the analytics pipeline to the requestor computing system.
