Hi Tianqi,
I am also impressed with XGBoost and looking forward to having integration
with Apache Flink.
As for resource requirements, Apache Flink is using abstraction of slots to
express parallel execution in the TaskManager [1]
I suppose you were looking for some DSL or specification configur
Thanks! I am not aware of SrcOperator before. Then yes things can be done.
About multi-threading issue, I am looking for more principled API to
specify the resources requirement, e.g. the slots in this stage needs 4 GPU
cores and 1 GPU. So the resource allocator can be aware of that.
We have publ
Hi Tianqi,
dmlc looks really cool and it would be great to integrate it with Flink. As
far as I understood your requirements, I think that you can already
implement most of it on Flink.
For example, starting a special container which does not receive any input
could be a specialized SourceOperato
Thanks for the insight, what you're doing is really interesting. I will
definitely spend some time looking at DMLC and MXNet.

Thanks for the reply. I am writing a long email to give the answers to
Simone and clarifies what we do
I want to mention that *you can use the library already in Flink*. See
Flink example here:

I have not run pressure test on
Hello Tianqui,
Yes that definitely sounds interesting for us and we are looking forward to
help out with the implementation.

This is a really interesting approach. The idea of a ML library over
DataFlow is probably a winning move and I hope it will stop the
proliferation of worthless reimplementation that is taking place in the big
data world. Do you think that DataFlow posed specific problems to your
work? Does it missi
Hi Flink Developers
I am sending this email to let you know about XGBoost4J, a package that
we are planning to announce next week . Here is the draft version of the
post https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/blob/master/doc/jvm/xgboost4j-intro.md
In short, XGBoost is a machine learning package t
