Introduction
We all know data and access to quality data is a pre-requisite for machine learning. Some of the popular apps we use in our day-to-day life have quality data for various ML use cases. When we have those data on our table, then the sky is the limit.
MindsDB App handler framework has the vision & potential to get the data from any popular data sources. All that open-source contributors have to do is enable it.
I am happy to enable & contribute to building the below-listed App handlers in MindsDB.
Confluence
Jira
InfluxDB
Strava
Youtube
Confluence App Handler
About the Handler
Confluence is a collaborative documentation tool, it can be used to host Wiki pages. The implemented handler will support the Confluence spaces table for a given confluence-hosted URL instance.
Also, it can support more advanced SQL queries like below
SELECT id,key,name,type
FROM mindsdb_confluence.pages
WHERE type="personal"
ORDER BY id ASC, name DESC
LIMIT 10
Usecase in Machine Learning
Since Confluence is a web-based collaboration software tool that is used to help teams collaborate and share knowledge effectively.
Generating Content Recommendations is one of the possibilities of machine learning use cases
Natural Language Processing (NLP): Machine learning can be used to improve the search functionality in Confluence by incorporating natural language processing (NLP) techniques. This would allow users to perform more complex searches using natural language queries.

This handler PR is Code reviewed & merged.
Jira App Handler
About the Handler
Jira is a tool to track the progress of software defects, stories, and releases. The implemented handler will support the Jira project table for a given Jira hosted url instance
Also, it can support more advanced SQL queries like below
SELECT key,summary,status
FROM jira_source.project
ORDER BY key ASC
LIMIT 10
Usecase in Machine Learning
Since Jira is a web-based collaboration software tool that is used to help teams manage their project by tracking release stories and bugs.
Predictive Analysis is one of the possibilities of machine learning use cases.
Machine learning algorithms can be used to predict how long it will take to complete a project or specific task based on historical data. This can help teams better plan their workloads and allocate resources more effectively.
Issue Categorization: Machine learning can be used to automatically categorize issues based on their content, allowing teams to prioritize and address them more efficiently.

InfluxDB App Handler
About the Handler
InfluxDB is a time series database that can be used to collect data & monitor the system & devices, especially Edge & IoT devices.
Also, it can support more advanced SQL queries like below
SELECT name,time,sensor_id,temperature
FROM influxdb_source5.tables
ORDER BY temperature DESC
LIMIT 65;
Usecase in Machine Learning
InfluxDB is a time-series database that is commonly used for storing and querying metrics, events, and other time-stamped data. Machine learning can be applied to InfluxDB data to gain insights and automate certain tasks. Some potential use cases include:
Predictive Maintenance: By analyzing historical data in InfluxDB, machine learning can predict when equipment or systems are likely to fail, allowing teams to perform maintenance or repairs before a failure occurs. This can help reduce downtime and improve overall reliability.
Time-series Forecasting: Machine learning algorithms can use historical data in InfluxDB to make predictions about future trends, such as stock prices or weather patterns. This can help businesses make more informed decisions and plan for the future.
Overall, machine learning can help teams make better use of their InfluxDB data by providing insights and automating certain tasks. By leveraging this technology, teams can improve their operations, reduce costs, and achieve better outcomes.

Strava App Handler
About the Handler
Strava is an app used for tracking physical exercise and sharing data with your social network. This handler supports the Strava all_clubs table & Strava club_activities table.
Also, it can support more advanced SQL queries like below
SELECT distance, sport_type, athlete_firstname
FROM
mindsdb_strava.club_activities
WHERE strava_club_id = 158786;
ORDER BY athelete.firstname ASC
LIMIT 10
Usecase in Machine Learning
Machine learning can be applied to Strava data to gain insights and improve performance for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Some potential use cases include:
Activity Recognition: Machine learning can be used to automatically recognize and classify different types of activities such as running, cycling, and swimming, allowing users to accurately track their progress over time.
Performance Prediction: Machine learning algorithms can analyze historical data and provide users with predictions of their performance for specific routes, races or events. This can help users better prepare for upcoming challenges and set realistic goals for themselves.
Goal Tracking: Machine learning algorithms can analyze user data and provide recommendations for setting goals and tracking progress. This can help users stay motivated and on track towards achieving their fitness goals.
Overall, machine learning can help users make better use of their Strava data by providing insights and identifying patterns that may not be immediately apparent to users. By leveraging this technology, users can improve their performance, avoid injury, and achieve better results.

Youtube App Handler
About the Handler
Youtube is an app that needs no introduction. It provides a great distribution for all businesses and creators, and It opens up a great opportunity to do NLP on youtube comments. This handler supports the Youtube video_comments table.
Also, it can support more advanced SQL queries like those below
SELECT * FROM mindsdb_youtube.get_comments
WHERE youtube_video_id = "raWFGQ20OfA"
ORDER BY display_name ASC
LIMIT 5;
Usecase in Machine Learning
Machine learning can be applied to YouTube comments to gain insights and improve various aspects of YouTube content creation and management. Some potential use cases include:
Sentiment Analysis: Machine learning algorithms can analyze the sentiment of comments left by viewers on YouTube videos. This can help creators and managers understand how viewers are responding to their content and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Spam Detection: Machine learning algorithms can be used to detect and remove spam comments on YouTube videos. This can improve the quality of the comments section and create a more engaging experience for viewers.
Overall, machine learning can help YouTube creators and managers gain insights into viewer behavior, improve content quality, and create a more engaging viewing experience. By leveraging this technology, they can enhance their strategies and achieve better outcomes.
