After the queries are executed using the machine learning algorithms in an environment (e.g., Hadoop®), the results of the queries are rated for relevance, precision and accuracy. The machine learning algorithms are also rated based on the number of successful queries. Those machine learning algorithms with a rating above a threshold are identified to be utilized to scan new data to be stored in the index to provide a new environment that replaces the initial environment.
