I also saw https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/machine-learning it looks like something different from Tensorflow integration? I guess it would make sense for end-users to use the same API for the same task regardless of the backend library. By the way, I recommend that you take a look at https://djl.ai it's deep learning library from Amazon which is a Java wrapper around MxNet, TF and PyTorch, they also participate in JSR381, and have provided initial implementation. > P.S.

So we would definitely like to hear your thoughts and we're open to adapt the specification.
