Gartner defines a data science and machine learning (DSML) platform as a core product and supporting portfolio of coherently integrated products, components, libraries and frameworks (including proprietary, partner-sourced and open-source). Its primary users are data science professionals, including expert data scientists, citizen data scientists, data engineers, application developers and machine learning (ML) specialists.

The core product and supporting portfolio:

• Are sufficiently well-integrated to provide a consistent “look and feel.”
• Create a user experience in which all components are reasonably interoperable in support of an analytics pipeline.
