This project explores an e-commerce sample Natural Language Query feature within Compass. By leveraging codeless analytics, we uncover valuable insights into sales patterns, customer behavior, and product trends without the need for complex queries.
The dataset used for this analysis is the "Online Retail Transaction Data" available on Kaggle: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/thedevastator/online-retail-transaction-data.
- The dataset was imported into MongoDB Atlas.
- A database and collection were created to store the data.
- MongoDB Compass's Natural Language Query feature was used to perform the analysis. This allows for querying the data using natural language prompts, eliminating the need for query syntax.
For more information on MongoDB Compass's Natural Language Query feature, see the official documentation: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/compass/current/query-with-natural-language/prompt-natural-language-query/
- What are the top 3 product combinations (pairs or triplets) that are frequently purchased together?
- Can we identify any seasonal patterns or trends in sales for specific product categories?
- Can we identify any customer churn patterns and predict which customers are likely to churn?
- What is the optimal reorder point for each product to minimize stockouts and excess inventory?
- Can we cluster customers based on their purchase behavior (low,mid,high) to create more targeted marketing campaigns?
- How can we optimize pricing strategies for different products or customer segments to maximize revenue?
The exploration of the dataset underscored the effectiveness of Natural Language Query feature in simplifying data analysis. By enabling interaction with the dataset through intuitive natural language prompts, the process of data exploration was significantly streamlined, benefiting both technical and non-technical users.
Key observations:
- Accelerated understanding of data: The codeless approach enabled quicker comprehension of the dataset's structure and content.
- Empowerment of non-technical users: Business analysts and other stakeholders could independently extract insights without relying heavily on data engineers.
- Seamless transition from exploration to production: The ability to save views, build aggregation pipelines, and access the underlying queries facilitated the integration of findings into data engineering workflows.
- Enhanced collaboration: The intuitive interface fostered collaboration between technical and non-technical teams, promoting data-driven decision-making across the organization
Codeless analytics has demonstrated its transformative potential in the realm of data exploration and business intelligence. By leveraging tools like this, a wider range of users, regardless of their technical expertise, can actively participate in the discovery of insights. This fosters a more collaborative and data-driven decision-making environment, ultimately empowering organizations to harness the full potential of their data to drive innovation and growth.
