Building Web Analytics at SpiderOak
- uberneo 11y agohttp://snowplowanalytics.com/ http://snowplowanalytics.com/ -- this is an another Open Source project which you can use in house and a loads and loads of predefined metrics and documentation.. but I agree the approach here is simple and rock solid, plus you have complete control of it. Just wondering if JSOB datatype is used to store the unstructured data into Postgres?
- implicit_none 11y agoSnowplow looks very promising but we ruled it out because of the dependency on AWS. And we use the hstore data-type.
- uberneo 11y agoI did the similar thing but with nodejs to collect and process the events and Postgresql JSONB for storing the events .... i see the advantage on this approach is that i dont need to do much for structuring the data in node as i am just dumping this unstructured data directly into JSONB column , but i believe in your case you are structuring it first in Django and then storing it in hstore .. I totally agree with you about the Visualisation .. thats the hard part .. in my case i have totally unstructured events but still i managed to use a simple node app to give me the data back by querying JSONB .. was it easy to query HSTORE??
