You guys seem to make setting up Deep Learning infrastructure easy for data scientists which is awesome! What about situations where the end user/business isn't sure exactly how to use Deep Learning (which algorithm, how to partition the data into training and result sets, stability of results etc.) for the problem/data set at hand? Would it be possible to use FloydHub as a marketplace of sorts where I could hire a deep learning enthusiast to appropriately construct the experiment for me and then explain the results?

Yes, we are planning to build a FloydHub marketplace for talented data scientists to find gigs. We believe Floydhub can showcase their work and expertise easily (similar to StackOverflow) and help find a suitable partners to work with. A wide range of industries like Medical, Oil and Finance have been collecting huge amounts of data and now with Deep Learning, they can effectively make use of that. So I definitely see a rise in demand for deep learning practitioners and we want to support them on Floydhub.
