Data Acquisition APIs Web Scraping 1 2 3 Web Crawling Web Dynamics Web Archives 4 5 6 What is Information Retrieval? Example scenario: Your small business’s website has a form used to sign clients up for appointments. You want to give your clients the ability to automatically create a Google calendar event with the details for that appointment. An application program interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols, API Use: The idea is to have your website’s server send an API and tools for building software request directly to Google’s. Your server would then receive applications. Basically, an API Google’s response, process it, and send back relevant specifies how software information to the browser, such as a confirmation message to components should interact the user. What is the difference between an API and You’ve probably heard of any other remote server? companies packaging APIs as To render the whole web page, your browser expects a response products. For example, Weather in HTML, which contains presentational code, while Google Underground sells access to its Calendar’s API call would just return the data — likely in a format like JSON. If your website’s server is making the API request, then weather data API. your website’s server is the client (similar to your browser being the client when you use it to Whatnavigate is Information to a Retrieval? website). To summarize, when a company offers an API to their customers, it just means that they’ve built a set of dedicated URLs that return pure data responses — meaning the responses An application program interface won’t contain the kind of presentational overhead that you (API) is a set of routines, protocols, would expect in a graphical user interface like a website. and tools for building software applications. Basically, an API Can you make these requests with your specifies how software components should interact browser? Often, yes. Since the actual HTTP transmission happens in text, your browser will always do the best it can to display the You’ve probably heard of response. companies packaging APIs as products.

Some web pages make your life easier, they offer something called API, they offer an interface that you can use to download data. For instance, Twitter provides API to access data. However, there are times when the data you want can only be accessed as part of a web page. In cases like this, you'll want to use a technique called web scraping to get the data from the web page into a format you can work with in your analysis. What is Information Retrieval? “Web scraping is a computer software technique of extracting information from websites” It focuses on the transformation of unstructured data on the web, typically in HTML format, into structured data that can be stored and analyzed in a central local database or spreadsheet. What is Information Retrieval? • When performing data science tasks, it's common that you want to use data found on the internet.

What is Information Retrieval? • When we visit a web page, our web browser makes a request to a web server. This request is called a GET request, since we're getting files from the server. The server then sends back files that tell our browser how to render the Scarping is all about html tags. page for us. The files fall into a few main types: So you need to understand html inorder to scrape data.

The data is used for the II. EXISTING WEB SCRAPING TECHNIQUES extraction of knowledge by performing machine leaning analysis. Typically, web scraping applications imitate a regular web In order to perform data mining of the web-information, the data user. They follow the links and search for the information should be extracted from the source and placed on analytical storage. This is the ETL-process. Different web-sources have they need. The classic web scraper can be classified into two different ways to access their data: either API over HTTP protocol types: web-crawlers and data extractors “Fig. 1”. or HTML source code parsing. The article is devoted to the approach of high-performance data extraction from sources that do not provide an API to access the data. Distinctive features of the proposed approach are: load balancing, two levels of data storage, and separating the process of downloading files from the process of scraping. The approach is implemented in the solution with the following technologies: Docker, Kubernetes, Scrapy, Python, MongoDB, Redis Cluster, and СephFS.

  • Frontera-Open Source Large Scale Web Crawling Framework
    Frontera: Large-Scale Open Source Web Crawling Framework Alexander Sibiryakov, 20 July 2015 [email protected] Hola los participantes! • Born in Yekaterinburg, RU • 5 years at Yandex, search quality department: social and QA search, snippets. • 2 years at Avast! antivirus, research team: automatic false positive solving, large scale prediction of malicious download attempts. 2 «A Web crawler starts with a list of URLs to visit, called the seeds. As the crawler visits these URLs, it identifies all the hyperlinks in the page and adds them to the list of URLs to visit, called the crawl frontier.». –Wikipedia: Web Crawler article, July 2015 3 Motivation • Client needed to crawl 1B+ pages/week, and identify frequently changing HUB pages. • Scrapy wasn’t suitable for broad crawling and had no crawl frontier capabilities* • People were tend to favor Apache Nutch instead of Scrapy. Hyperlink-Induced Topic Search, Jon Kleinberg, 1999 4 tophdart.com Frontera: single-threaded and distributed • Frontera is all about knowing what to crawl next and when to stop. • Single-Threaded mode can be used for up to 100 websites (parallel downloading), • for performance broad crawls there is a distributed mode. 6 Main features • Online operation: scheduling of new batch, updating of DB state. • Storage abstraction: write your own backend (sqlalchemy, HBase is included). • Canonical URLs resolution abstraction: each document has many URLs, which to use? • Scrapy ecosystem: good documentation, big community, ease of customization. 7 Single-threaded use cases • Need of URL metadata and content storage, • Need of isolation of URL ordering/queueing logic from the spider • Advanced URL ordering logic (big websites, or revisiting) 8 Single-threaded architecture 9 Frontera and Scrapy • Frontera is implemented as a set of custom scheduler and spider middleware for Scrapy.
