KXEN: Data Mining Automation
April 5, 2009
A reader sent me an email asking about real time data flows and making sense of them. Good question. At the goose pond, we use our own Overflight services to figure out what’s useful and what’s not useful in content feeds. We also use some commercial systems; for example, the goslings like Googzilla’s tools. One useful one is the Google App Engine. We don’t think the person writing us wanted to venture when the ArnoldIT.com tech geese wander, so I wanted to pass along a short comment about KXEN, a robust data mining automation vendor.
You may want to take a look at the company’s predictive business intelligence software. With that component you can:
- With Predictive BI from KXEN you can:
Discover leading indicators that actually predict performance
Plan with forecasts that are financially sound and reliable
Explore less and act more on indicators that really impact your business.
KXEN’s approach eliminates some of the manual tasks required to crunch data with such tools as SAS or SPSS. Combining KXEN with a robust data management platform like Aster Data, you can acquire and process real time data flows. There will be some latency but the delay will be measured in seconds or minutes, not days or weeks. You can watch a walk through of the model building tool available from KXEN here.
