Cover Story: Rainfall is a novel framework for rapid prototyping of data mining pipelines, aligned with the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining. It offers a low-code, visual environment where non-technical users can build, run, and monitor complex pipelines. The framework supports standard data mining algorithms like machine learning, deep learning and process mining, and allows on-the-fly integration of custom techniques. Thanks to its modular, container-based architecture, Rainfall scales range from local to enterprise deployments. Its applicability, scalability, and usability were validated through real-world industrial collaborations, a computational study, and a user evaluation involving over 85 participants. Rainfall bridges the gap between experimentation and production, helping organizations turn data into insights efficiently. View this paper
