Hi, one of the engineers who created dotscience here. Customers didn't insist on open sourcing anything, we did have some open source components but I don't think they cared about that :) Regarding tracking usage - usually it was just many conversations with customers and having them on our Slack channel. Solutions engineering - mostly development team would be helping with writing anything specific that they need. On the SaaS side we had a lot more analytics, used segment, intercom and internal "audit events" to better understand what's happening.

Thanks much for the response. So to sum up, what did customers care about the most from your point of view? (maybe top 3)

  1. Deploying models easily (data scientist doesn't need to grok docker/kube) 2. Monitoring models including data and model drift/statistical monitoring (data scientists don't need to grok prom/grafana) 3. Only once these base concerns are met, model inventory, provenance, data versioning, reproducibility, collaboration with notebooks, ci integration etc. Happy to talk more - drop me a note at luke@dotscience.com
