Stockholm, June 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today June 12th, our research paper, "The Hopsworks Feature Store for Machine Learning," will be presented at the SIGMOD 2024 Industrial Track. The paper is the first feature store to appear at a top-tier database or systems conference. In peer-reviewed benchmarks, Hopsworks was the class leading feature store, with an order of magnitude higher throughput and lower latency than Databricks, AWS Sagemaker, and GCP vertex, enabling the most challenging real-time AI systems, from personalized recommendations to financial trading.

Research Paper Highlights:

• Data Transformation Taxonomy for ML:
  A new model for understanding how and where to transform data for AI systems, based on whether the data will be reused across models, be specific to one model, or require real-time inputs.
  
  
• High-Performance Hopsworks Feature Query Service:
  Hopsworks introduced a new end-to-end Arrow based query service for historical feature data that avoids the row-to-column pivots and excessive serialization/deserialization found in the other feature stores evaluated in the paper.
  
  
• Feature Store Workloads Benchmarks:
  Hopsworks' Feature Store outperformed Vertex, Databricks and SageMaker. For the offline Feature Store Hopsworks, when reading 10M rows, achieves 11, 10 and 17 times the throughput of Sagemaker, Vertex and Databricks, respectively. For the online Feature Store, Hopsworks, for p99 latency, had 15% of the latency of Sagemaker and 11% of the latency of Vertex.
