Lhotse
A high-performance Python library for speech data representation, manipulation, and efficient deep learning pipelines.
Paxata, now a core component of the DataRobot AI Platform, remains a premier self-service data preparation solution designed for high-scale enterprise environments. Its technical architecture is built on a distributed, in-memory Spark engine, allowing it to process multi-billion row datasets with sub-second responsiveness. In the 2026 market landscape, Paxata distinguishes itself by shifting from traditional ETL workflows to a 'Data-Centric AI' approach, where automated data quality profiling and algorithmic join suggestions are standard. The platform utilizes a visual, spreadsheet-like interface that democratizes data engineering, enabling business analysts and data scientists to perform complex data shaping without writing code. Beyond simple cleaning, Paxata's 2026 capabilities include advanced semantic recognition, which automatically detects PII, financial patterns, and industry-specific entities. Its integration into the broader DataRobot ecosystem allows for seamless transitions from raw data to model-ready feature sets, complete with full lineage tracking and version control. This makes it an essential tool for organizations prioritizing data governance and transparency in their generative AI and predictive analytics pipelines.
Uses machine learning to analyze column headers and data distributions to recommend optimal join keys across heterogeneous sources.
Verified feedback from the global deployment network.
Post queries, share implementation strategies, and help other users.
A metadata-driven layer that tracks every transformation and version, allowing for instant 'Undo/Redo' and point-in-time recovery.
Algorithms that automatically detect patterns like credit card numbers, email addresses, and custom regex-defined entities.
Distributed computing architecture that caches data in-memory across a cluster for real-time interactivity.
Uses phonetic and edit-distance algorithms (Levenshtein, Metaphone) to group similar values for bulk correction.
Automatically expands datetime and categorical variables into ML-ready features (one-hot encoding, lags).
A graphical representation of the data flow from ingestion to output, including every transformation step.
Merging data from Salesforce, Zendesk, and SQL databases with inconsistent customer IDs.
