Transitioning from historical data to real-time data in a Multi-Platform Sentiment Analysis

System involves several crucial enhancements and considerations to ensure seamless

integration and accurate analysis.

Migrating the Multi-Platform Sentiment Analysis System to Real-Time Architecture

Objective:

To enhance the existing system, currently built on historical data, for real-time sentiment
analysis with < 2ms response time per inference. This includes architectural rework, model
serving optimizations, real-time data pipelines, and live dashboard updates.

1. Real-Time Data Integration

➤ What to Change:

You currently load .csv or .json files and train models offline. Now you need streaming
pipelines.

Streaming pipelines process data continuously and in real-time, unlike batch processing
which handles data in batches. They move data from sources to destinations, potentially
performing transformations along the way, and are vital for applications needing fresh, up-
to-date information.

Here's a more detailed explanation of how streaming pipelines work:

Key Components and Functionality:

Data Sources:

Streaming pipelines ingest data from various sources, such as databases, sensor networks,
social media feeds, or application logs.

Streaming Engine:

This is the core component that handles data ingestion, processing, and delivery. Examples
include Apache Kafka, Apache Flink, AWS Kinesis, or Google Cloud Pub/Sub.

Data Processing:

The streaming engine can apply various transformations, aggregations, or filtering

operations on the data as it flows through the pipeline.

Data Destinations:
The processed data is then delivered to target systems, which can be databases, analytics
platforms, or real-time applications.

Event-Driven:

Streaming pipelines are event-driven, meaning they respond to data changes in real-time as
events occur.

How it Works:

Data Ingestion: Data is continuously ingested from various sources as it is generated or

updated.

Transformation and Processing: As the data streams in, it can be transformed, cleaned, and
aggregated.

Delivery: The processed data is then delivered to the target systems, allowing for real-time
insights and actions.

Benefits of Streaming Pipelines:

Real-time Data:

Streaming pipelines offer near real-time insights and enable timely decision-making.

Scalability:

They are designed to handle high volumes of data and can scale to accommodate increasing
workloads.

Resilience:

They can handle data loss and ensure data integrity even in the face of failures.

Cost-Effectiveness:

Streaming pipelines can be more cost-effective than batch processing by leveraging real-
time processing and potentially reducing storage costs.

Examples of Streaming Pipelines in Action:

Fraud Detection: Real-time analysis of transaction data to detect fraudulent activity.

Social Media Monitoring: Tracking trends and sentiment in real-time.

Personalized Recommendations: Delivering personalized content and recommendations

based on user behavior.

Real-time Dashboards: Providing up-to-date insights into various processes and systems.
In essence, streaming pipelines provide a powerful way to manage and process data as it is
generated, enabling real-time applications and driving faster decision-making

➤ Implementation:

APIs/SDKs per Platform:

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) facilitate communication and data exchange

between software systems, while SDKs (Software Development Kits) provide a
comprehensive set of tools and resources for building applications on a specific platform.
APIs are essentially gateways that allow different applications to interact, while SDKs offer a
more complete toolkit, including APIs, for app development.

APIs:

Function:

APIs define how software components interact and exchange data. They act as interfaces
that allow different applications to communicate and share functionality.

Purpose:

To enable interaction between different software systems, such as web services, mobile
apps, and desktop applications.

Example:

A REST API used for fetching data from a web server or a GraphQL API for querying data
from a database.

SDKs:

Function:

SDKs provide a collection of tools, libraries, and documentation needed to develop

applications for a specific platform or framework.

Purpose:

To simplify the development process, provide pre-built functionality, and enable developers
to leverage platform-specific features.

Example:

The Android SDK for building Android apps, the iOS SDK for building iOS apps, or the React
Native SDK for building cross-platform apps.

Platform Examples:

Android: Provides tools and libraries for building apps for Android devices, including APIs for
interacting with the Android OS.
iOS: Provides tools and libraries for building apps for Apple devices, including APIs for
interacting with the iOS OS and iCloud.

Web Development: Includes APIs for interacting with web browsers, servers, and other web
services. Libraries like jQuery and React are also included in web development SDKs.

Cross-Platform Development: Frameworks like React Native and Flutter provide SDKs that
allow developers to build apps for multiple platforms with a single codebase.

Instagram & Facebook: Use Meta Graph API with access tokens, set up Webhooks for real-
time changes.

YouTube: Use YouTube Data API (v3) and poll comments or use PubSubHubbub for push.

Reddit: Use Pushshift + Reddit API (stream comments).

Streaming Tools:

Use Apache Kafka to act as a broker between API fetchers and processing pipeline. Apache
Kafka is a distributed streaming platform used for building real-time data pipelines and
applications. It acts as a messaging system, allowing publishers to send messages to
subscribers, and it's often used for streaming data to various destinations.

Optional: Use Apache NiFi for visual low-code streaming data flow design.

Apache NiFi is a powerful, open-source tool for automating data flows between different
systems. It allows you to design and manage data pipelines using a user-friendly, visual
interface. Essentially, it enables you to extract, transform, and load data from various
sources, and then distribute it to different destinations, all without having to write extensive
code.

Here's a breakdown of how to use Apache NiFi:

1. Installation and Setup:

Download and Install: Download the Apache NiFi distribution from the official website and
install it on your system.

Configure: Configure NiFi's properties, such as the hostname, port, and authentication
settings.

Access the UI: Access the NiFi user interface (UI) through a web browser.

2. Designing Data Flows:

Flow Design:

NiFi uses a visual, flow-based approach. You design your data flows by dragging and
dropping processor components on a canvas and connecting them with connections.

Processors:
Processors are the building blocks of data flows, each performing a specific task, such as
reading data, transforming it, or writing it to a destination.

Connections:

Connections define the flow of data between processors. They can be configured with rules,
such as retry counts, and backpressure settings to manage data flow.

Process Groups:

Organize your flows into process groups for better management and structure.

3. Building and Running Data Flows:

Add Processors:

Add NiFi processors to your canvas, selecting the appropriate processors for your tasks.

Configure Processors:

Configure the properties of each processor, such as input and output paths, data formats,
and transformation rules.

Connect Processors:

Connect processors by creating connections between them, defining how data flows
between them.

Run the Flow:

Start the flow to begin processing data.

Monitor and Manage:

Monitor the flow's performance and status, and manage it through the NiFi UI.

4. Key Concepts in NiFi:

Flow Files: Flow Files are the units of data that flow through the NiFi pipelines.

Processors: Processors perform the actual work on Flow Files, transforming, enriching, or
routing them.

Connections: Connections link processors and queues, defining the flow of data.

Process Groups: Process groups allow for organizing and managing complex flows, with
nested groups for even greater structure.

Data Provenance: NiFi provides detailed data provenance, allowing you to track the history
and lineage of data throughout the flow.
5. Real-World Applications:

Data Ingestion: NiFi can ingest data from various sources, including files, databases, APIs,
and messaging systems.

Data Transformation: NiFi can perform transformations, such as data cleaning, validation,
and formatting, to prepare data for analysis.

Data Routing: NiFi can route data to different destinations, such as databases, data
warehouses, or cloud storage.

Data Enrichment: NiFi can enrich data with additional metadata or information.

Data Distribution: NiFi can distribute data to multiple consumers.

➤ Output:

Streams raw comments into a centralized real-time processing system.

2. Real-Time Preprocessing

➤ What to Change:

Preprocessing is now batch-based; needs to be real-time & non-blocking.

➤ Implementation:

Wrap preprocessing steps (cleaning, tokenization, vectorization) in a Kafka consumer or

FastAPI endpoint.

A Kafka consumer reads data from Kafka topics, while a FastAPI endpoint defines a web API
route. They are separate concepts, but can be combined to build real-time data-driven
applications. A consumer uses the Kafka API to subscribe to topics and consume messages,
while a FastAPI endpoint provides an HTTP interface to access data or trigger actions.

Kafka Consumer:

Definition:

A Kafka consumer is an application or system that reads data from one or more Kafka topics.

Purpose:

To subscribe to topics, pull messages from partitions, and process the data.

How it works:

The consumer connects to a Kafka broker, subscribes to a topic, and then periodically polls
the broker for new messages.
Use cases:

Real-time event processing, data pipelines, building microservices that interact with Kafka.

Example:

Python

from kafka import KafkaConsumer

from kafka.errors import KafkaError

consumer = KafkaConsumer('your_topic', bootstrap_servers='your_broker:9092')

try:

for message in consumer:

print(message.value.decode('utf-8'))

except KafkaError as e:

print(f"Kafka error: {e}")

FastAPI Endpoint:

Definition: An endpoint is a specific URL that a FastAPI application can respond to.

Purpose: To handle HTTP requests, process data, and return responses.

How it works: A FastAPI endpoint is defined using decorators like @app.get(), @app.post(),
etc., and a function that handles the request.

Use cases: Building web APIs, creating RESTful services, handling user interactions.

Example:

Python

from fastapi import FastAPI

 app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/hello")

async def read_root():

return {"message": "Hello World"}

Using them together:

You can use a Kafka consumer within a FastAPI application to create real-time data-driven
applications. For example:

Set up a Kafka consumer: to read data from a Kafka topic.

Process the Kafka messages: as needed (e.g., store them in a database, transform them,
etc.).

Create FastAPI endpoints: to expose the processed data or trigger actions based on the
Kafka messages.

Example (simplified):

Python

from fastapi import FastAPI

from kafka import KafkaConsumer

app = FastAPI()

# Kafka Consumer (separate thread or background task)

consumer = KafkaConsumer('my_topic', bootstrap_servers='localhost:9092')

def consume_kafka():

for message in consumer:

print(f"Received: {message.value.decode('utf-8')}")
 # Do something with the message (e.g., store in database, process)

# FastAPI Endpoint

@app.get("/events")

async def get_events():

# Retrieve events from the database or other source based on the

# messages consumed from Kafka.

return {"events": ["event 1", "event 2"]}

Use spaCy or nltk for fast text cleaning

Use joblib.load() to serve your TF-IDF/Tokenizer models.

Convert vectorizer and label encoder into stateless functions.

➤ Imputation/Labeling (Facebook):

For Facebook, compute running quantile thresholds using windowed stats (e.g., pandas
rolling or streamz).

3. Real-Time Model Training / Serving

➤ What to Change:

You train models offline (train_model.py). Shift to:

Online Learning and Model Serving

Online Learning:

Use partial_fit() in models like SGDClassifier or MultinomialNB that support online

updates.

Wrap your train_model.py into a stream-based trainer script.

Model Serving:

Convert trained models into microservices:

Use FastAPI, TorchServe, or TF Serving.

Use ONNX or TensorRT for DL model optimization.

Response Time Target: Sub-2ms with:

Preloaded models in memory

Efficient hardware (GPU/TPU inference)

Light models (replace LSTM with DistilBERT or quantized CNN)

4. Unified FastAPI Backend (Streaming Ready)

➤ What to Change:

Move from button-triggered train_model.py scripts to REST APIs that:

Ingest real-time data

Serve real-time predictions

➤ Required APIs:

POST /predict/instagram → Returns sentiment instantly

GET /results/{platform} → Real-time updated metrics

POST /train/{platform} → For retraining

➤ Performance Improvements:

Use Uvicorn with Gunicorn workers

Enable async endpoints

Use Redis cache or Memcached to store recent predictions and avoid recomputation

📊 5. Real-Time Streamlit Dashboard

➤ What to Change:

Your current dashboard loads static JSON files. Needs to pull and push live data.

➤ Implementation:

Push Updates:
 Convert JSON loading to API call (requests or websockets) every few
seconds

Optional: Use Socket.IO for WebSocket push from FastAPI backend

Dynamic Visualization:

Use Plotly or Altair for real-time updating charts

Show:

Live pie chart (sentiment split)

F1-score trends every 10 minutes

Platform comparison heatmap

6. Result Storage Format

➤ What to Change:

Static JSON files are fine for logging but not scalable for streaming.

➤ Suggestions:

Store results in Redis (for fast access) and backup in:

PostgreSQL / MongoDB (for historical analysis)

Schema:

{
"platform": "youtube",
"timestamp": "2025-06-08T10:00:00Z",
"model": "CNN",
"predictions": {"positive": 130, "negative": 90, "neutral": 80},
"f1": 0.87
}

7. Infrastructure + Latency Optimization

➤ Goal:

Process streaming data with inference latency < 2ms

➤ Infrastructure Stack:
Use Docker containers for microservices: Docker containers are self-contained,
standalone software packages that include everything needed to run an application.
They package code, libraries, runtime, and system tools, allowing applications to run
consistently across different environments. Docker uses containers to create
isolated environments for applications, ensuring they run reliably and predictably.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

What they are:

Docker containers are essentially lightweight, virtualized environments that package

up an application along with all its dependencies.

How they work:

They share the host operating system's kernel, which reduces overhead compared
to virtual machines. Each container has its own file system, networking, and other
resources, allowing them to be isolated from each other.

Why they're useful:

Docker containers enable developers to package and deploy applications in a

consistent and portable manner. They simplify deployment, make it easier to scale
applications, and reduce the risk of compatibility issues between different
environments.

Key benefits:

Portability: Containers can run on various machines and environments without

modification.

Isolation: Each container has its own isolated environment, preventing conflicts
between applications.

Resource utilization: Containers can be easily scaled up or down based on demand,

optimizing resource usage.

Consistency: Containers ensure that applications run consistently across different

environments, reducing development and deployment headaches.

Deploy to GPU-enabled cloud instances (e.g., AWS EC2 g4dn)

Apply load balancing (e.g., AWS ALB, NGINX) to scale requests

Use Kubernetes (EKS/GKE) for orchestration and auto-scaling:--

To achieve orchestration and auto-scaling in Kubernetes (EKS/GKE), you utilize the

Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler and Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA). The Cluster
Autoscaler dynamically adjusts the number of nodes in a cluster, while the HPA
adjusts the number of Pods (replicas) within a Deployment, StatefulSet, or other
similar workload, based on resource consumption or other metrics.
Here's a breakdown of how to implement this:

1. Cluster Autoscaler:

Enable Autoscaling:

In GKE, navigate to the Google Cloud Console, select your cluster, and enable
autoscaling for node pools. You'll define minimum and maximum node counts for
each pool.

Optimize-Utilization Profile:

Use the optimize-utilization profile to remove underutilized nodes more quickly.

Location Policy:

Set the location policy to ANY to prioritize using existing reservations and create
nodes in any available zone within the region.

Node Auto-Provisioning:

Enable node auto-provisioning for managed node pool creation.

2. Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA):

Configure HPA:

Create a HorizontalPodAutoscaler object that monitors a workload (e.g., a

Deployment). You'll define target CPU utilization, memory utilization, or other
custom metrics.

kubectl autoscale:

Use the kubectl autoscale command to create the HPA and specify the workload,
target metrics, and scaling rules.

Custom Metrics:

For custom metrics, ensure they are exported to a metrics server and configured for
HPA usage. You may need to configure system metrics collection.

Interacting with HPAs:

Use kubectl get hpa or kubectl describe hpa to inspect HPA status and autoscaling
events.

3. Vertical Pod Autoscaling (VPA):

Analyze Resource Requirements:

Use the VerticalPodAutoscaler to analyze the CPU and memory requests of
containers. This helps determine if the requests are appropriate for the workload.

Auto Mode:

Create a VPA object with updateMode: Auto to automatically adjust resource

requests based on observed usage.

Pod Disruption Budget:

Use a Pod Disruption Budget (PDB) to limit the amount of Pod restarts during VPA-
driven updates.

4. Event-Driven Autoscaling:

KEDA:

For event-driven scaling, consider using Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling

(KEDA). KEDA allows scaling based on events from various sources (e.g., message
queues, databases).

EKS:

In EKS, you can use EKS Pod Identity and KEDA for event-driven scaling, according to
AWS documentation.

5. Manual Scaling (for Specific Scenarios):

kubectl scale: While autoscaling is generally preferred, you can manually scale
Deployments, StatefulSets, etc., using kubectl scale command.

Google Cloud Console: You can also manually adjust node counts in the Google
Cloud Console.

6. Best Practices:

Resource Requests and Limits:

Define appropriate resource requests and limits for your containers to ensure
efficient resource utilization and prevent resource contention.

Vertical Pod Autoscaling (VPA):

Use VPA to dynamically adjust the resource requests of your Pods based on their
actual usage.

Pod Disruption Budget (PDB):

Configure a PDB to ensure minimal disruption during scaling and other Kubernetes
events.
 Monitoring and Logging:

Set up comprehensive monitoring and logging to track your cluster's performance,

detect issues early, and inform your scaling decisions.

By combining these techniques and leveraging the capabilities of EKS and GKE, you
can effectively orchestrate and auto-scale your Kubernetes workloads for optimal
performance and resource utilization.

Use FastAPI with Uvicorn workers (asynchronous, low-latency):-FastAPI is a

modern, high-performance web framework. It uses the asynchronous programming
features of Python to improve the performance of web applications. Uvicorn, on the
other hand, is a high-performance ASGI server implemented with uvloop and
httptools, which can handle HTTP requests asynchronously.

➤ Optimization Techniques:

Convert models to ONNX + quantize them

To convert models to ONNX and quantize them, you'll need to first convert the
model to ONNX format, then use a quantization tool to reduce the model's size and
improve performance.

1. Converting to ONNX:

PyTorch: Use PyTorch's built-in export API to convert your PyTorch model to ONNX.
You'll need both the model and the source code that defines the model, as well as
dummy input values for all inputs.

TensorFlow/Keras: Use the tf2onnx tool to convert TensorFlow or Keras models to

ONNX.

Other Frameworks: Other frameworks may have their own export APIs or
conversion tools for ONNX.

2. Quantization:

Dynamic Quantization:

Calculates quantization parameters on-the-fly, suitable for RNNs and transformers.

Static Quantization:

Calculates quantization parameters beforehand using calibration data, ideal for

CNNs.

ONNX Runtime Quantization:

Use the ONNX Runtime library's built-in static quantization function

(quantize_static). Specify QuantFormat.QOperator for QOperator-only output, False
for per-tensor quantization, and QuantType.QUInt8 for 8-bit quantization.
Calibration:

For static quantization, you'll need a representative dataset (calibration data) to

determine the scale and zero-point parameters, which map floating-point
activations to integer values.

Example using PyTorch and ONNX Runtime:

Python

# 1. Convert PyTorch to ONNX

# ... (Assume you have a PyTorch model and source code)

dummy_input = torch.randn(1, 3, 224, 224) # Example dummy input

torch.onnx.export(model, dummy_input, "model.onnx", ...)

# 2. Quantize using ONNX Runtime

import onnx

from onnxruntime.quantization import quantize, QuantizationMode

# Load the ONNX model

model = onnx.load("model.onnx")

# Quantize the model

quantized_model = quantize(model,
quantization_mode=QuantizationMode.IntegerOps) # Or QuantizationMode.Static

# Save the quantized model

onnx.save(quantized_model, "quantized_model.onnx")

Important Considerations:

Model OpSet Version:

 Ensure your ONNX model's OpSet is 10 or higher for quantization support. If it's
lower, reconvert from the original framework using a later OpSet.

Hardware Support:

For optimal performance on GPUs, you'll need hardware that supports Tensor Core
int8 computation.

Transformer-based Models:

For transformer models, consider using the Transformer Model Optimization Tool
before quantization.

Use batch predictions only if needed

Avoid disk I/O: keep models preloaded in memory

8. Security, Privacy, and Compliance

➤ What to Consider:

Now you're handling real-time user-generated content, so:

➤ Required Measures:

Use OAuth 2.0 for authenticated API access to Instagram/Facebook :

To access the Instagram/Facebook API via authenticated OAuth 2.0, you need to
follow a specific process. First, register your application with Facebook/Instagram
and obtain an app ID and secret. Then, use this information to initiate the OAuth 2.0
flow, which involves redirecting the user to the Instagram/Facebook login page,
where they authorize your application. Finally, you exchange the authorization code
received back for an access token, allowing your application to make API calls on
behalf of the user.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. Register your application:

Create a Facebook App:

Go to the Facebook Developer Portal and create a new app. This process will provide
you with an App ID and App Secret, which are crucial for authentication.

Add Instagram Product:

Navigate to the "Products" tab within your app's settings and add the Instagram
product to enable access to the Instagram API.

Configure Redirect URIs:

Specify the URLs where users will be redirected after authorizing your application.
These URLs must match the ones configured in your app settings.

App Review:

While not always required for the initial setup, you'll eventually need to get your
app reviewed by Facebook to switch to Live Mode.

2. Initiate the OAuth 2.0 flow:

Redirect to Authorization Endpoint:

Use the Instagram/Facebook authorization endpoint, including your App ID, redirect
URI, and scopes (permissions) you're requesting. This redirects the user to the
Instagram/Facebook login page.

User Consent:

The user will be presented with a consent screen where they can choose to grant
your application access to their Instagram/Facebook account and the requested
permissions.

Authorization Code:

If the user authorizes your app, they will be redirected back to your specified
redirect URI, and the URL will contain an authorization code.

3. Exchange authorization code for access token:

Server-side Exchange:

Make a POST request to the Instagram/Facebook access token endpoint, including

your App ID, App Secret, the authorization code, and the redirect URI.

Access Token:

The endpoint will respond with an access token, which you can then use to make API
calls on behalf of the user.

4. Using the access token:

Make API Calls: Use the access token in the header of your requests to access the
Instagram/Facebook API.

Key Considerations:
Scopes:

Be mindful of the scopes you're requesting from users. You should only request
what's necessary for your application to function.

Security:

Protect your App Secret by storing it securely on the server.

Error Handling:

Implement proper error handling to gracefully handle issues that may occur during
the OAuth 2.0 flow or API calls.

Facebook Login vs. Instagram Login:

Note that Instagram API access is now typically handled through Facebook Apps, and
you may need to implement the standard Facebook login process first.

Business Accounts:

If you're working with Instagram business accounts, you may need to handle specific
configurations and permissions.

By following these steps, you can successfully implement OAuth 2.0 authentication
and access the Instagram/Facebook API for various purposes, such as user
authentication, data retrieval, and more.

Mask or encrypt user data in logs

Log only anonymized or hashed user IDs
