IBM Data and AI Ideas Portal for Customers


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against products and services offered by the IBM Data & AI organization. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).


Shape the future of IBM!

We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Publish WML performance statistics in the documentation

Latency and performance are key considerations when architecting systems to interact with machine learning models. Understanding the performance I can expect, and any limitations of services I am using is important as this information enables me to drive logical architecture decisions to meet my end goal.

WML has the potential to be a key component in many applications, however the lack of performance statistics/guarantees on delivery of results make it difficult to know how to incorporate the service in different contexts. e.g. average response times via REST, how many requests/second can the service handle before I should consider hosting the same model in a separate WML instance, and load balance between the two?

Please publish performance details and recommended sizing so that we can make informed decisions for architecting around WML.
