data analytics / statistics standards or protocols: is there any? -
this more of idea problem, hope can write clear question.
i'm working on web application produce several data day day operativity, nature of isn't important here.
the application have show these data administrators, analytics section or needed, , in fact wouldn't hard put usable.
but, before jumping in on developing section, thought arised: instead have separate application, queries webapp data , data analysis.
in way analytics application separate main webapp , "attached" other web applications.
a couple of examples:
- from e-commerce application, administrators can check top 10 sold products or average income per week;
- from library application, administrators can check books still haven't been returned or number of subscribers per month year.
data queries can vary, , hard coding them in analytics application fine. point if there's standard or common way make datasets available application can query them.
do know of standards or protocols or can guide me in effort? feasible, or should each application have own data analysis part because each set of data different?
the odata protocol standard querying data via http.
furthermore, have developed adaptivelinq component. introduces concept of cube in linq query , can distribute directly result of analysis request odata feed.
so can build web service provides, example, the top 10 products sold per week via http request:
http://.../analysisservice?$select=product,week,quantity&$orderby=quantity desc&$top=10
