Rapid-I announced this week that it will offer a marketplace for RapidMiner extensions to its open source data mining tool RapidMiner. “Over the years, many of you have been developing new RapidMiner Extensions dedicated to a broad set of topics,” the company’s announcement stays. “Whereas these extensions are easy to install in RapidMiner – just download and place them in the plugins folder – the hard part is to find them in the vastness that is the Internet.” You can visit the beta version of the extension marketplace here.
It doesn’t appear that there’s a mechanism for offering paid extensions, yet. But Decision Stats blogger Ajay Ohri hopes to see this turn into an app store for algorithms.
