KNIME’s open source analytics platform enables anyone — no matter their expertise — to intuitively work with data. KNIME Business Hub is the commercial complement to the analytics platform and enables users to collaborate on data science and share insights across the organization. Together, they support the complete data science lifecycle, allowing teams at all levels of analytics readiness to support the operationalization of data and to build a scalable data science practice. KNIME users are further supported with learning resources and a repository of analytic blueprints built by KNIME and the open source community.
