1 00:00:06,510 --> 00:00:11,620 Watson Studio is an integrated platform of tools services and data that 2 00:00:11,620 --> 00:00:17,470 helps companies accelerate their shift to become data-driven organizations you 3 00:00:17,470 --> 00:00:22,689 can start with a free account to explore its capabilities data science is a team 4 00:00:22,689 --> 00:00:27,159 sport we have different types of people interested in the insights that data 5 00:00:27,159 --> 00:00:32,829 science can provide this includes business analysts data engineers data 6 00:00:32,829 --> 00:00:39,100 stewards data scientist and developers data needs to be located in cleanse 7 00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:44,500 models have to be created tested monitored and updated all this requires 8 00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:48,880 teamwork for this reason watson city was built as 9 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,760 a collaborative platform a community of like-minded people there is a lot to 10 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,710 cover in this introduction and will only scratch the surface you can find more 11 00:00:59,710 --> 00:01:05,280 information on the digital technical engagement site at ibm.com slash demos 12 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,200 once you are logged in you may see the get started welcome screen you can 13 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,050 minimize the screen by clicking on the get started button in the upper right 14 00:01:16,050 --> 00:01:21,070 one important item that is easy to miss is the hamburger button in the upper 15 00:01:21,070 --> 00:01:26,590 left it gives you direct access to projects catalogs and services among 16 00:01:26,590 --> 00:01:32,320 other things the gallery is particularly interesting it is a collection of assets 17 00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:38,320 including tutorials notebooks datasets articles and papers from multiple 18 00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:45,820 sources new assets are constantly added assets can be searched using filters for 19 00:01:45,820 --> 00:01:52,780 Thai language technology topics and so on the results can be sorted by features 20 00:01:52,780 --> 00:02:01,000 or by date manage gives you quick access to specific areas to manage finally we 21 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,720 have integrated support and documentation in the Watson environment 22 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:11,140 as mentioned earlier the project is the center of the collaboration it is very 23 00:02:11,140 --> 00:02:15,640 simple to create a project you click create a project in the welcome screen 24 00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:20,000 or new project and either create an empty project or 25 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:25,310 one from an existing one then you give it a name possibly add a description and 26 00:02:25,310 --> 00:02:32,900 you're ready to go at the project level we also have a menu of options it starts 27 00:02:32,900 --> 00:02:37,550 with the overview where you can see basic information on the project this 28 00:02:37,550 --> 00:02:42,770 tab also includes a readme section where you can get more details on what the 29 00:02:42,770 --> 00:02:49,280 project is about the next one is assets where you can see the data assets models 30 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,960 notebooks and other assets that are part of the project you can go to add 31 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,350 specific assets using the add to project drop down menu at the top of the screen 32 00:02:59,350 --> 00:03:04,340 we won't go into all of those menu items but one important want to know is 33 00:03:04,340 --> 00:03:09,770 connection this allows you to access data that comes from outside Watson 34 00:03:09,770 --> 00:03:16,340 studio as you can see it includes a lot of data services from IBM but also quite 35 00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:22,910 a few from third parties such as Amazon and Microsoft going back to our project 36 00:03:22,910 --> 00:03:27,830 I'd like to point out the environment section one important tool for that 37 00:03:27,830 --> 00:03:32,959 exploration data manipulation and model creation is the notebook depending on 38 00:03:32,959 --> 00:03:37,000 the amount of work that needs to be done we have a choice of resource allocation 39 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,320 we can also tailor the environment to include additional libraries so we have 40 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,940 a complete environment from the start I want to point out two more selections 41 00:03:46,940 --> 00:03:52,310 from the top menu access control and settings the access control allows you 42 00:03:52,310 --> 00:03:57,020 to control collaborators and their permissions and more in the settings 43 00:03:57,020 --> 00:04:02,810 section you can among other things add services for example you click on the 44 00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:09,560 add service drop-down menu select Watson and add a machine-learning service you 45 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,850 have the choice to add an existing service you may have created earlier in 46 00:04:13,850 --> 00:04:20,299 another project or create a new one note that most services include a light free 47 00:04:20,299 --> 00:04:24,020 version this means that you can experiment with all sorts of 48 00:04:24,020 --> 00:04:30,480 capabilities for free 49 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,540 you
