Python on Bluemix plus PySpark and DashDB run a production pipeline that cleans web and offline logs, trains over 80 model variations, and deploys scoring and automation to sales and marketing. Churn prediction uses AFT survival regression at scale; recommendations use ALS with implicit feedback and percentile ranking. A diagnostic change to landing pages and keywords yields a measurable 10% increase in conversions, and periodic retraining updates models as usage shifts.
