Hi Nick,

Thanks a lot for the exhaustive and prompt response! (In the meantime
I watched a video about PMML to get a better understanding of the
topic).

What are the tools that could "consume" PMML exports (after running
JPMML)? What tools would be the endpoint to deliver low-latency
predictions by doing this "a bit of linear algebra and some basic
transformations"?

Pozdrawiam,
Jacek Laskowski
