Applied AI for Enterprise Java Development

AI is rapidly permeating every facet of our lives, fine-tuning the quality of our existence and shaping a better future. Organizations are improving their business performance by leveraging AI in their digital transformation initiatives. At the heart of this fervent global wave are the data scientists, the data engineers, the AI architects and developers, who are infusing AI into applications to solve real-world problems.

This book begins with an understanding of AI, subsequently showing how to apply AI to solve real-world challenges. Each chapter provides several illustrations, code examples, and hands-on exercises to augment further understanding of the technical concepts, preparing the readers to implement right from the very first chapter. The readers also learn how to make their AI-based solutions robust and enterprise-ready. Though the concepts are explained with Java and AI tools in Azure, this could be well applied using other programming languages and other similar cloud environments.

This book will help Java developers and architects quickly ramp up on AI and use the necessary tools to build AI-enabled applications. AI technology stakeholders, administrators, and enthusiasts will learn and understand the concepts and how these are being applied in the real-world.
