Data Democratization with Domo

By: Jeff Burtenshaw

Overview of this book

Domo is a power-packed business intelligence (BI) platform that empowers organizations to track, analyze, and activate data in record time at cloud scale and performance. Data Democratization with Domo begins with an overview of the Domo ecosystem. You’ll learn how to get data into the cloud with Domo data connectors and Workbench; profile datasets; use Magic ETL to transform data; work with in-memory data sculpting tools (Data Views and Beast Modes); create, edit, and link card visualizations; and create card drill paths using Domo Analyzer. Next, you’ll discover options to distribute content with real-time updates using Domo Embed and digital wallboards. As you advance, you’ll understand how to use alerts and webhooks to drive automated actions. You’ll also build and deploy a custom app to the Domo Appstore and find out how to code Python apps, use Jupyter Notebooks, and insert R custom models. Furthermore, you’ll learn how to use Auto ML to automatically evaluate dozens of models for the best fit using SageMaker and produce a predictive model as well as use Python and the Domo Command Line Interface tool to extend Domo. Finally, you’ll learn how to govern and secure the entire Domo platform. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained the skills you need to become a successful Domo master.

Understanding the AutoML process

The Domo AutoML process is a multi-step process, as shown in the following screenshot:

Figure 16.1 – AutoML process

Follow these steps to execute the AutoML process:

  1. Prepare the data with dimensions that may influence the value to be predicted.
  2. Launch an AutoML training job.
  3. Evaluate model performance on the Model Leaderboard page.
  4. Choose the model that is the best fit and deploy it via the AutoML Inference tile in Magic ETL.
  5. Set up a model monitoring dashboard.
  6. Create a story based on the insights that have been predicted.

Next, let's train a model.
