METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DEMAND-DRIVEN AUTOMOTIVE DATA EXTRACTION
A method and a system for extracting automotive data on demand are provided herein. The method may include the following steps: analyzing automotive data requests issued by automotive data consumers, to determine demand for automotive data; extracting automotive data from the automotive data providers; and adjusting said extracting, based on the demand for the automotive data by said data consumers. The system may implement the aforementioned method over an electronic automotive data marketplace.
1 . A method of extracting automotive data on demand, the method comprising:
analyzing automotive data requests issued by automotive data consumers, to determine demand for automotive data;
extracting automotive data from the automotive data providers; and
adjusting said extracting, based on the demand for the automotive data by said data consumers,
wherein the analyzing, the extracting, and the adjusting are carried out by one or more computer processors.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the demand includes at least one of: type of automotive data, format of automotive data, and quality of automotive data.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting comprises prioritizing a first characteristic of automotive data over a second characteristic of automotive data
4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the prioritizing comprises early processing and delivery of demanded automotive data associated with a predefined characteristic.
5 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for processing in real-time and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for offline/batch processing.
6 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data provided in high quality and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required in low quality.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the extracting is carried out locally at said data providers.
8 . A system for extracting automotive data on demand, the system comprising:
an automotive data request manager implemented on a computer processor which receives requests for automotive data by data consumers;
a request analyzer implemented on said computer processor which analyzes said requests, to determine demand for automotive data; and
an on-demand data extractor implemented on said computer processor which extracts automotive data from the automotive data providers and adjusts said extracting, based on the demand for the automotive data by said data consumers.
9 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the demand includes at least one of: type of automotive data, format of automotive data, and quality of automotive data.
10 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the adjusting comprises prioritizing a first characteristic of automotive data over a second characteristic of automotive data.
11 . The system according to claim 10 , wherein the prioritizing comprises early processing and delivery of prioritized automotive data associated with a predefined characteristic.
12 . The system according to claim 10 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for processing in real-time, and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for offline/batch processing.
13 . The system according to claim 10 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data provided in high quality, and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required in low quality.
14 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the extracting is carried out locally at said data providers.
15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium for extracting automotive data on demand, the computer readable medium comprising a set of instructions that, when executed, cause at least one computer processor to:
receive requests for automotive data by data consumers;
analyze said requests, to determine demand for automotive data;
extract automotive data from the automotive data providers; and
adjust said extracting, based on the demand for the automotive data by said data consumers.
16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 15 , wherein the demand includes at least one of: type of automotive data, format of automotive data, and quality of automotive data.
17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 15 , wherein the adjusting comprises prioritizing a first characteristic of automotive data over a second characteristic of automotive data.
18 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 17 , wherein the prioritizing comprises early processing and delivery of demanded automotive data associated with a predefined characteristic.
19 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 17 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for processing in real-time, and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required for offline/batch processing.
20 . The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 17 , wherein the first characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data provided in high quality, and wherein the second characteristic of automotive data comprises automotive data that is required in low quality.
