Overview of this book

Modeling and managing data is a central focus of all big data projects. In fact, a database is considered to be effective only if you have a logical and sophisticated data model. This book will help you develop practical skills in modeling your own big data projects and improve the performance of analytical queries for your specific business requirements. To start with, you’ll get a quick introduction to big data and understand the different data modeling and data management platforms for big data. Then you’ll work with structured and semi-structured data with the help of real-life examples. Once you’ve got to grips with the basics, you’ll use the SQL Developer Data Modeler to create your own data models containing different file types such as CSV, XML, and JSON. You’ll also learn to create graph data models and explore data modeling with streaming data using real-world datasets. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to design and develop efficient data models for varying data sizes easily and efficiently.

Modeling structured data using Python

Let's see what type of data we are going to analyze today using IPython. Download the CSV file from the Chapter 6 codebase from GitHub. You should have access to the data file in the CH06 folder. The CSV files contain the following entries:

id,
date,
price,
bedrooms,
bathrooms,
sqft_living,
sqft_lot,
floors,waterfront,
view,
condition,
grade,
sqft_above,
sqft_basement,
yr_built,
yr_renovated,
zipcode,
lat,
long,
sqft_living15,
sqft_lot1

First things first, we import our libraries and dataset. Then, using the head function, we check out the first few pieces of data to see how they look. After that, we use the describe function to see the percentiles and other key statistics. Let's start our IPython notebook by using the following command:

jupyter notebook

Now let's import the required libraries:

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib...
