Distributed Framework for Data Mining As a Service on Private Cloud

Data mining research faces two great challenges: i. Automated mining ii. Mining of distributed data.\ud Conventional mining techniques are centralized and the data needs to be accumulated at central location. Mining\ud tool needs to be installed on the computer before performing data mining. Thus, extra time is incurred in\ud collecting the data. Mining is 4 done by specialized analysts who have access to mining tools. This technique is\ud not optimal when the data is distributed over the network. To perform data mining in distributed scenario, we\ud need to design a different framework to improve efficiency. Also, the size of accumulated data grows\ud exponentially with time and is difficult to mine using a single computer. Personal computers have limitations in\ud terms of computation capability and storage capacity.\ud Cloud computing can be exploited for compute-intensive and data intensive applications. Data mining\ud algorithms are both compute and data intensive, therefore cloud based tools can provide an infrastructure for\ud distributed data mining. This paper is intended to use cloud computing to support distributed data mining. We\ud propose a cloud based data mining model which provides the facility of mass data storage along with distributed\ud data mining facility. This paper provide a solution for distributed data mining on Hadoop framework using an\ud interface to run the algorithm on specified number of nodes without any user level configuration. Hadoop is\ud configured over private servers and clients can process their data through common framework from anywhere in\ud private network. Data to be mined can either be chosen from cloud data server or can be uploaded from private\ud computers on the network. It is observed that the framework is helpful in processing large size data in less time\ud as compared to single system
