Model of Cloud-Based Services for Data Mining Analysis

Abstract

New cloud-based services are being developed constantly in order to meet the need for faster, reliable and scalable methods for knowledge discovery. The major benefit of the cloud-based services is the efficient execution of heavy computation algorithms in the cloud simply by using Big Data storage and processing platforms. Therefore, we have proposed a model that provides data mining techniques as cloud-based services that are available to users on their demand. The widely known data mining algorithms have been implemented as Map/Reduce jobs that are been executed as services in cloud architecture. The user simply chooses or uploads the dataset to the cloud, makes appropriate settings for the data mining algorithm, executes the job request to be processed and receives the results. The major benefit of this model of cloud-based services is the efficient execution of heavy computation data mining algorithm in the cloud simply by using the Ankus - Open Source Big Data Mining Tool and StarfishHadoop Log Analyzer. The expected outcome of this research is to offer the integration of the cloud-based services for data mining analysis in order to provide researchers with reliable collaborative data mining analysis model.
