"When you apply for a Data Scientist Workbench account you get a welcome email that tells you to click on a link to start your Data Scientist Workbench. We often get asked "how long will it take for me to get the workbench?". Unfortunately the answer to this question is "it depends". When we provision the workbench for you, we request a virtual machine on the cloud. This process can take a few minutes but from time to time has been known to take many hours. "
I am doing some comparing before I purchase a DSW solution. Do you know how IBM's workbench compares to others? Does it include text classification or data cleansing tools? There are several others I am looking at right now including https://www.bisok.com/data-scien.... It looks like IBM's tool can perform text extraction, though. Thanks for the help
