Dear RM friends,

In 2016 we published a paper in PLOSOne to demonstrate the potential of RM for the integration, use, analysis, etc of a large medical database (MIMIC-III)  in a dedicated Hadoop cluster with Hive server using Radoop.

https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0145791

The paper was cited several times and read by over 7000 people discovering "RapidMiner" (metrics as attachment PlosOneRM.docx).

Additionally, our research was presented at the MIT.

Based on current technology of RM and the increased demand for secondary analysis of medical records, I would love to investigate how we could use the same database as descibed in the following blog.

Interested in your feedback, my greetings from Belgium

Sven

    Sven,

    AWS Ressoures are usually just comsumeable in RM Studio. This means you can just connect to the S3 and Redshift ressources outlined there. Additionally one could host a RM Server Infrastrucutre on AWS to be closer to the source.

    Hi Sven - Yes as Martin said RM works very well with AWS resources. Your project could easily look like this:



    If you have resources sitting on AWS that I can play with, I'd be happy to help.

    Hi Scott,
    I am reading through https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/build-a-healthcare-data-warehouse-using-amazon-emr-amazon-redshift-aws-lambda-and-omop/
    and waiting on more info from MIT how I got access to the MIMIC-III AMI with my login.
    I send you my reply as soon as I got feedback from them. 
    I am now looking into https://s3.amazonaws.com/physionet-pds/index.html
    Thanks

    Do you know how does Rapidminer interact with Redhisft or Azure data lakes? Is the data downloaded and loaded onto RAM for its analysis?

    Thanks
