H2O is an open source - software from companies H2O.ai (previously 0xdata ) for Big Data analyzes.

H2O implements algorithms from the field of statistics , data mining and machine learning ( generalized linear models , K-Means , Random Forest , Gradient Boosting and Deep Learning ). The software is based on the Hadoop Distributed File System so that performance gains are achieved compared to other analysis tools. As the algorithms are run through, approximate results are output so that users get an impression of the later result and can also take corrective action. H2O can be operated graphically via a web browser or used via interfaces with R , Python , Apache Hadoop and Spark as well as executed in Maven . Using the REST - API H2O may also depend on Microsoft Excel or RStudio be served from. With the H2O machine learning integration, KNIME offers nodes for the use of H2O algorithms in KNIME workflows. The software is distributed free of charge; the business model consists in the development of individual adjustments and support .

The three Stanford Professors Stephen P. Boyd , Robert Tibshirani and Trevor Hastie form a committee that advises H2O on scientific questions.

H2O was voted # 1 among open source machine learning projects written in Java by GitHub members . Fortune magazine also named Arno Candel, one of the most important developers, as one of 20 Big Data All-Stars in 2014 .
