Storing, preprocessing and analyzing Tweets: Finding the suitable NoSQL system
NoSQL systems are a new generation of databases that aim to handle a large
volume of data. However there is a large set of NoSQL systems, each has its own
characteristics. Consequently choosing the suitable NoSQL system to handle
Tweets is challenging. Based on these motivations, this work is carried out to
find the suitable NoSQL system to store, preprocess and analyze Tweets.
This paper presents the requirements of managing Tweets and provides a
detailed comparison of five of the most popular NoSQL systems namely, Redis,
Cassandra, MongoDB, Couchbase and Neo4j regarding to these requirements. The
results of this work show that for Tweets storing, preprocessing and analyzing,
MongoDB and Couchbase are the most suitable NoSQL systems. Unlike related
works, this work compares five NoSQL systems from different types in a real
scenario which is Tweet storing, preprocessing and analyzing. The chosen
scenario enables to evaluate not only the performance of read and write
operations, but also other requirements related to Tweets management such as
scalability, analysis tools support and analysis languages support.Comment: Preprint, 18 page
