What is Azure Machine Learning Designer?
Azure Machine Learning Designer (formerly known as Azure ML Studio (classic)) provides a visual drag‑and‑drop interface to build, train, and deploy machine‑learning models without writing code. It integrates seamlessly with Azure resources, enabling scalable, reproducible pipelines.
Key Features
- Visual pipeline authoring with over 250 built‑in modules.
- Seamless data import from Azure Blob Storage, Azure Data Lake, and on‑premises sources.
- Automated ML integration for hyperparameter tuning.
- One‑click deployment to Azure Container Instances, AKS, or as a Web Service.
- Versioning, experiment tracking, and model management via Azure ML workspace.
Quick Start
- Sign in to the Azure Portal and create an Azure Machine Learning workspace.
- Navigate to Designer from the workspace overview.
- Drag a
Data Input
module onto the canvas and connect to a dataset. - Add a
Train Model
module, select an algorithm, and connect the data. - Add a
Score Model
andEvaluate Model
to test accuracy. - Click Submit to run the experiment.
- Once satisfied, click Deploy to publish as a web service.
