Step-by-Step Guide to Creating an AWS RDS Database Instance

-
Image
 Amazon Relational Database Service (AWS RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. Instead of managing servers, patching OS, and handling backups manually, AWS RDS takes care of the heavy lifting so you can focus on building applications and data pipelines. In this blog, we’ll walk through how to create an AWS RDS instance , key configuration choices, and best practices you should follow in real-world projects. What is AWS RDS? AWS RDS is a managed database service that supports popular relational engines such as: Amazon Aurora (MySQL / PostgreSQL compatible) MySQL PostgreSQL MariaDB Oracle SQL Server With RDS, AWS manages: Database provisioning Automated backups Software patching High availability (Multi-AZ) Monitoring and scaling Prerequisites Before creating an RDS instance, make sure you have: An active AWS account Proper IAM permissions (RDS, EC2, VPC) A basic understanding of: ...

10 Excusive Steps You need for Web Scrapping

-
Here're ten Python technics to clean the scraped data. The scraped Text has unwanted hidden data. So, as part of cleaning it try to remove these ten in your data.

10 Steps for Web scrapping

Data is prime input for text analytics projects. After cleaning, you can feed to Machine/Deep Learning systems.
  1. Removing HTML tags
  2. Tokenization
  3. Removing unnecessary tokens and stop-words
  4. Handling contractions
  5. Correcting spelling errors
  6. Stemming
  7. Lemmatization
  8. Tagging
  9. Chunking
  10. Parsing

10 Technics to Clean Text in Python
10 Technics to Clean Text in Python


1. Removing HTML tags

The unstructured text contains a lot of noise ( data from web pages, blogs, and online repositories.)when you use web/screen scraping. 

The HTML tags, JavaScript, and Iframe tags typically don't add much value to understanding and analyzing text. Our purpose is to remove HTML tags, and other noise.


2. Tokenization

  • Tokens are independent and minimal textual components. And have a definite syntax and semantics. A paragraph of text or a text document has several elements. Those you can further break down into clauses, phrases, and words. 
  • The popular tokenization techniques include sentence and word tokenization. These, you can use to break down a text document (or corpus) into sentences. And each sentence into words. 
  • Thus, tokenization is the process of breaking down or splitting textual data into smaller and more meaningful components called tokens.


Python is popular in Text analytics. Here, you will find various cleaning techniques used in text analytics.

3. Removing Unnecessary Stop Words

Stopwords have little or no significance and are usually removed from a text when processing it. These usually occur most frequently if you aggregate a corpus of text based on the particular tokens and their frequencies. Words like "a," "the," "and," and so on are stopwords.


4. Handling contractions

The best examples of contractions are you'll, it's, etc.

5. Correcting spelling errors

Auto correcting spelling errors. While doing a Google search, you will find it corrects your spelling automatically.

6. Stemming

Here you can reduce words to the root level. The best example is Snowball, this you stem it to root level as Snow and Ball.


7. Lemmatization

Based on the context, bring the words to the root level, and make them meaningful.


8. Tagging

This is the concept of group particular words under a Tag.


9. Chunking

It is of constructing from various words of Verbs, Nouns, Adjectives, etc. Check out here on Data Chunking.


10. Parsing

The data will pass through some syntax rules. The output will then feed to Machine Learning systems. The syntax rules vary from project to project.

Step-by-Step Guide to Reading Different Files in Python

-
Image
 In the world of data science, automation, and general programming, working with files is unavoidable. Whether you’re dealing with CSV reports, JSON APIs, Excel sheets, or text logs, Python provides rich and easy-to-use libraries for reading different file formats. In this guide, we’ll explore how to read different files in Python , with code examples and best practices. 1. Reading Text Files ( .txt ) Text files are the simplest form of files. Python’s built-in open() function handles them effortlessly. Example: # Open and read a text file with open ( "sample.txt" , "r" ) as file: content = file.read() print (content) Explanation: "r" mode means read . with open() automatically closes the file when done. Best Practice: Always use with to handle files to avoid memory leaks. 2. Reading CSV Files ( .csv ) CSV files are widely used for storing tabular data. Python has a built-in csv module and a powerful pandas library. Using cs...

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...
