- The Java Data Mining API by Benoy Jose - [Clicks: 64]
Data Mining is a very important process used by most companies today. It includes sifting through tons of business data for potential leads, sales analysis, audit, data warehousing, business intelligence and many other functions. Most companies have a variety of data sources like mainframe, databases, and files etc. , where data is stored. Grouping and analyzing data from disparate data sources now becomes a big problem. Most of these individual data source providers have some API through which data analysis can be done on the data in the database. Imagine the plight of a companies that have data in different data sources like Oracle, mainframe etc. and have to do analysis of their own data. They would have to do individual analysis of the data in each database and then consolidate the results. This is where the JDM fits in. The Java Data Mining API (JDM) proposes a pure Java API for developing data mining applications. The idea is to have a common API for data mining that can be used by clients without users being aware or affected by the actual vendor implementations for data mining.
