Social media data and real time analytics

Inquiry

Traditional data storage systems were not designed for real-time analysis but new technologies can now provide live information and data analysis can accomplished in real-time. Social media data offers the possibility of studying social processes as they unfold at the level of populations as an alternative to traditional surveys or interviews. The data from social media is described as “qualitative data on a quantitative scale” and requires innovative analysis techniques.
