Beyond Data Lakes and Data Warehousing

@machinelearnbot

The story begins with Decision Support which was the old trendy term which is being replaced by the new trendy term Business Intelligence (BI) and the even newer and trendier Analytics. Regardless of the term, the idea was that companies needed to make better decisions based on the data stored in their various operational systems and databases. So two guys from IBM came up with the idea of the Data Warehouse in the late 1980s. Their concept was to consolidate data from the various systems and databases into a single database, that is, a Data Warehouse, to serve as the source for creating analytics and reporting, that is, delivering decision support. It was a great idea and it worked! It was the first real step towards data integration because it solved the problem of isolated and heterogenous data stores, commonly referred to as data silos, by providing a single database for reporting and analysis. Some work was involved though.


The Growing Importance Of Data Integration Between Departments

Forbes - Tech

In the corporate world, the only thing worse than a lack of information is an abundance of inaccurate or useless information. While the lack of data can prompt one to action, having access to numerous low-quality pieces of information can lull businesses into a false sense of security. Once disaster strikes, this unintegrated data proves to be just as "effective" as the non-existent data was. The key role in preventing this scenario is the organization's ability to ensure comprehensive data integration across its many departments. It is essential to make all of them work together in unison, as this can oil the cogs of your business machinery.

Multi-Source Fusion Operations in Subjective Logic

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The purpose of multi-source fusion is to combine information from more than two evidence sources, or subjective opinions from multiple actors. For subjective logic, a number of different fusion operators have been proposed, each matching a fusion scenario with different assumptions. However, not all of these operators are associative, and therefore multi-source fusion is not well-defined for these settings. In this paper, we address this challenge, and define multi-source fusion for weighted belief fusion (WBF) and consensus & compromise fusion (CCF). For WBF, we show the definition to be equivalent to the intuitive formulation under the bijective mapping between subjective logic and Dirichlet evidence PDFs. For CCF, since there is no independent generalization, we show that the resulting multi-source fusion produces valid opinions, and explain why our generalization is sound. For completeness, we also provide corrections to previous results for averaging and cumulative belief fusion (ABF and CBF), as well as belief constraint fusion (BCF), which is an extension of Dempster's rule. With our generalizations of fusion operators, fusing information from multiple sources is now well-defined for all different fusion types defined in subjective logic. This enables wider applicability of subjective logic in applications where multiple actors interact.

Open Source ETL: Apache NiFi vs Streamsets

Actually it is easier, you have a nice-looking live dashboard displaying a lot of statistics for every processor while your dataflow is running. Errors are cleanly presented as red numbers on the processor icon and you can see individual errors for every faulty record with a mouse click. You may even put record filters on the connections between processors to inspect records in question. Filters can be applied while your dataflow is running, so I used it as live debugging tool.
