280 Chapter 7 Clustering

7.2 DEFINITION OF CLUSTERS AND CLUSTERING

As the amount of data stored and managed in a database increases, the need

to simplify the vast amount of data also increases. Clustering is deﬁned as

the process of classifying a large group of data items into smaller groups that

share the same or similar properties. Due to its usefulness in classifying and

simplifying data, clustering has been extensively studied and has been dem-

onstrated as a tool for dealing with massive amounts of data. This process is

called cluster analysis in many statistical publications (see the bibliography at the

end of this chapter for complete references). Therefore, the terms clustering and

cluster analysis are interchangeable.

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
