Momentum As A Data Platform

Fig 3. Momentum Data Platform Architecture

Momentum Connect allows to automate data ingestion, transformation and processing by creating data pipeline using intuitive UI. In addition to streamlining data wrangling for machine learning, it also allows to build scalable data lake, that is resilient with built-in support for replication, fault tolerance, failover and high availability.

Advanced Feature

Security: Momentum cluster is deployed within a protected and secured network infrastructure.

Privacy and Access Protection: The data models, insights, and output level protection and access are managed through the role-based and sharing mechanism.

Monitoring and Alerts: Builtin support for data and process auditing for failure/success, system monitoring, notification and alerting.

Optical Character and Handwriting Recognitions (OCR/ICR): Momentum supports training custom models to recognize printed and handwritten texts in virtually all languages.

Feedback for Retraining: Momentum Insight provides a customizable web based verification-and-validation (vnv) engine to pipe the anomalous output for manual correction. The manually corrected outputs may be given as feedback for the model to retrain and improve the accuracy.
