Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data processing and analysis, and in particular to a bank data processing method and a real-time analysis system based on a distributed architecture. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of financial technology and the digital transformation of banking business, banks have accumulated a large amount of complex data. This data is not only huge in volume, but also diverse in types, covering transaction records, customer information, market data and other aspects. How to efficiently process and analyze this data has become the key to improving banks' business capabilities and competitiveness.

[0003] Under the traditional centralized architecture, data processing systems face many challenges: first, the system scalability is limited and it is difficult to cope with the rapidly growing amount of data; second, the centralized system has low fault tolerance and a single point of failure may cause the entire system to crash; in addition, the performance of this architecture degrades significantly under high concurrency and cannot meet the needs of real-time data analysis. Therefore, distributed architecture has gradually become the preferred solution for bank data processing and real-time analysis systems.

[0004] The distributed architecture achieves high availability, scalability and high performance of the system by distributing data and computing tasks to multiple nodes. Based on big data processing frameworks such as Hadoop and Spark, banks can effectively store and process massive amounts of data. At the same time, distributed databases such as Cassandra and HBase provide high throughput and low latency data reading and writing capabilities, ensuring the real-time and stability of the system.

[0005] Real-time analysis is an important part of bank data processing. By using stream processing technologies such as Apache Kafka and Apache Storm, banks can capture and analyze data in real time and respond quickly to market changes and customer needs. For example, real-time fraud detection systems can quickly identify and prevent potential fraud by analyzing transaction data; customer service systems can solve customer problems in a timely manner and improve service quality by monitoring social media and phone records in real time.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0055] Figure 1 It is a flow chart of a bank data processing method based on a distributed architecture provided by an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0056] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0057] It is understandable that, based on the defects in the background technology, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a bank data processing method based on a distributed architecture, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0058] Step 1: Collect real-time bank transaction data, including transaction records, customer information and log information;

[0059] In this embodiment, bank transaction data is obtained in real time through a RESTful API or a message queue, and the bank transaction data supports batch and streaming data processing; collecting real-time bank transaction data includes the following steps:

[0060] Step 1.1: Data source identification and configuration; determine the data sources that need to be collected, including the bank's transaction system, customer management system, and third-party services; clarify the type and data format of each data source (such as database, API, log file, etc.), and configure connection information for each data source, including database connection string, API access address, authentication information, etc., to ensure that the data collection agent can successfully access these data sources;

[0061] Step 1.2: Select the collection method; Design data collection logic for systems that provide APIs, use HTTP requests to obtain data, and choose to trigger data collection by scheduled polling or event-driven methods (such as Webhook). For scenarios with high real-time requirements, use message queues (such as Kafka, RabbitMQ) for data collection. The system can subscribe to specific topics and receive messages in real time;

[0062] Step 1.3: Data acquisition and processing; implement data request logic, use HTTP methods (GET, POST, etc.) to obtain data from RESTful API, and for message queues, listen to messages and consume them in real time; parse the acquired data, convert it into a unified data format (such as JSON or XML), and extract the required fields (such as transaction amount, timestamp, customer ID, etc.);

[0063] Step 1.4: Monitoring and error handling; Set up data collection monitoring, monitor the status of collection tasks in real time, record successful and failed collection records, design error handling mechanisms, log and alarm for abnormal situations that occur during data collection (such as network failures, data format errors, etc.) to ensure the stability and reliability of the system.

[0064] Step 2: Preprocess the collected data, including deduplication, missing value processing, data type conversion, and data standardization;

[0065] It should be noted that this step can use tools such as Apache NiFi to realize the automatic processing of data flow;

[0066] Data deduplication includes: Determine a unique identifier (such as user ID, transaction ID, etc.) based on business needs and use the identifier to identify duplicate records. Use data processing tools (such as Apache NiFi's ExecuteScript or UpdateAttribute processors) to perform deduplication, retain the latest or most valid records, and delete the remaining duplicates. Check the deduplicated data to ensure that no valid records are missed, and record deduplication statistics for subsequent audits;

[0067] Missing value processing includes: analyzing the number and distribution of missing values ​​in the data set, and using tools (such as Apache NiFi's QueryRecord processor) to identify fields with missing data. Choose a strategy for handling missing values ​​based on the business scenario, such as: 1. Directly delete records containing missing values, which is suitable for situations with fewer missing values. 2. Use methods such as mean, median, mode to fill in numerical data, or use specific values ​​to fill in categorical data (such as "unknown"). 3. For time series data, interpolation can be used to fill in missing values.

[0068] Apply the selected strategy and update the dataset to ensure that the processed data meets expectations;

[0069] Data type conversion includes: Check the data type of each field in the data set and identify fields that do not match the type or need to be converted. According to the requirements of the target system or data warehouse, formulate data type conversion rules. For example, convert strings to date format, convert floating point numbers to integers, etc. Use Apache NiFi's ConvertRecord or UpdateRecord processors to perform type conversion according to the established rules to ensure data format consistency. Check the converted data to confirm that the data type of the field meets the expectations and record any warnings or error messages during the conversion process;

[0070] Data standardization includes: defining data standardization rules, ensuring that data field names and formats are consistent, such as unifying the date format to "YYYY-MM-DD", unifying the currency unit, etc. Use NiFi's UpdateAttribute or ReplaceText processor to perform data standardization according to the set rules. Verify the standardized data to ensure that all fields meet the expected standards and record the changes in standardization.

[0071] In addition, the quality of the preprocessed data is evaluated, including: using Apache NiFi's ValidateRecord processor to detect whether the data meets the predefined quality standards, summarizing the results of the data quality evaluation, generating reports, and recording key indicators in the data cleaning process (such as deduplication rate, missing rate, etc.). Based on the evaluation results, feedback is provided on the data preprocessing steps, and iterative optimization is performed when necessary to improve the processing flow.

[0072] Step 3: Divide the preprocessed data into multiple data blocks according to business logic, and distribute the data through distributed message queues;

[0073] It should be noted that this step can ensure the rapid transmission and processing of data within the system.

[0074] Among them, data distribution through distributed message queues specifically includes:

[0075] Step 3.1: Determine the business logic and distribution strategy; communicate with the business team to clarify the data usage scenarios and requirements, and determine the different usage modules of the data (such as analysis, real-time monitoring, data storage, etc.); divide the data into multiple data blocks according to the business logic, such as by user, time window, geographic location and other dimensions, determine the distribution target and processing flow of each data block, select the appropriate topic or queue, and ensure that the data can be consumed by the relevant downstream systems;

[0076] Step 3.2: Data serialization and preparation; Determine the serialization format of the data (such as JSON, Avro, ProtocolBuffers, etc.), and choose according to the needs of subsequent consumption and performance considerations. Before sending the data to Kafka, convert the data to the selected serialization format to ensure that the data can be correctly parsed during transmission. Verify the format and content of the serialized data to ensure that there is no missing information or format errors;

[0077] Step 3.3: Send data to Kafka; Use the Kafka client API (such as Java, Python, etc.) to write a data producer and set the producer configuration (such as Kafka Broker address, serializer, etc.). According to the distribution strategy, send the preprocessed data blocks to the corresponding Kafka topics to ensure that the data can flow according to the predetermined logic. When sending data, capture the sending results and exception information, record the successfully sent messages and the failed messages, to facilitate the subsequent error handling and retry mechanism;

[0078] Step 3.4: Monitoring and logging; Use Kafka monitoring tools (such as Confluent Control Center, Prometheus, etc.) to monitor the performance and health of the Kafka cluster. Record key log information during data sending, including the number of messages sent, sending rate, error information, etc., to facilitate subsequent problem troubleshooting. Implement a data tracking mechanism to ensure that the source and destination of each message can be tracked to improve the transparency of data processing;

[0079] Step 3.5: Downstream systems consume data; configure Kafka consumers for downstream systems, ensure that they can correctly connect to the Kafka cluster and subscribe to the corresponding topics. Write consumer code to process the received data and perform necessary business logic processing or storage. Monitor the consumer's consumption rate, latency, and errors to ensure that downstream systems can process the data received from Kafka in a timely manner.

[0080] Step 4: Use a distributed database to apply data sharding technology to store the data in shards and back up the data;

[0081] During data storage, data sharding technology is applied to improve storage efficiency and ensure high data availability and reliability. A reasonable data backup strategy should also be designed during this process to prevent data loss;

[0082] Using distributed database to apply data sharding technology to store data in shards includes:

[0083] Step 4.1: Choose a suitable distributed database; Analyze business needs based on data types (such as relational, non-relational), access patterns (such as more reads and fewer writes), and expansion requirements, and choose a suitable distributed database (such as Cassandra, MongoDB, CockroachDB, etc.). Evaluate the performance characteristics of different databases, consider indicators such as read and write latency, scalability, and data consistency, and ensure that the selection meets long-term needs;

[0084] Step 4.2: Design the data model; design the data model according to the business logic, define the data table structure, index, field type, etc., to ensure support for efficient query and storage. Determine the sharding strategy (such as range sharding, hash sharding, etc.), and design a reasonable sharding key according to the access mode and data distribution to ensure load balancing;

[0085] Step 4.3: Implement data sharding; configure sharding in the selected distributed database, set sharding keys and sharding rules, and ensure that data is evenly distributed among different nodes. If there is already data, implement a data migration strategy to migrate the existing data according to the newly designed sharding rules to ensure a smooth transition;

[0086] Step 4.4: Achieve high availability and reliability; configure database node redundancy, set the number of replicas, ensure that data exists on multiple nodes, and improve the system's fault tolerance. Set up an automatic failover mechanism so that when the primary node fails, the system can automatically switch to the replica node to ensure continuous data availability;

[0087] Step 4.5: Design a data backup strategy; formulate a regular backup strategy, determine the backup frequency (such as daily, weekly) and the backup window, so as to regularly save the data status. Combine incremental backup and full backup to reduce the storage space and time required for backup and improve backup efficiency. Choose a secure backup storage location (such as cloud storage, off-site backup) to ensure the security and reliability of backup data;

[0088] Finally, it also includes: Step 4.6: Monitoring and maintenance; configure monitoring tools to monitor the performance, load and storage status of the database in real time to detect potential problems in a timely manner. According to monitoring data and business changes, regularly tune the database performance, adjust the sharding strategy, index configuration, etc. to cope with changing needs.

[0089] Step 5: Perform real-time analysis on the stored data through a distributed computing framework;

[0090] It should be noted that the analytical model can perform predictive analysis, customer behavior analysis, etc. based on historical data and real-time data, and support the generation of real-time reports;

[0091] The real-time analysis of the stored data by using the distributed computing framework includes:

[0092] Step 5.1: Select a suitable distributed computing framework; Analyze business requirements, determine the types of analysis that need to be supported (such as predictive analysis, customer behavior analysis) and data scale, and select a suitable distributed computing framework (such as Apache Spark, Flink, Dask, etc.). Evaluate the performance characteristics of different frameworks, especially their support for real-time data processing, to ensure that the framework can meet real-time analysis requirements;

[0093] Step 5.2: Data integration and preprocessing: Establish connections with data storage, integrate historical data and real-time data streams, and ensure the diversity of data sources (such as databases, data lakes, and message queues). Clean the integrated data, remove duplicate values, process missing values, and perform format conversion to ensure data quality. According to analysis requirements, convert and aggregate the original data to generate a data format suitable for model input;

[0094] Step 5.3: Build an analysis model; based on business objectives, select appropriate machine learning or statistical analysis algorithms (such as regression analysis, cluster analysis, time series forecasting, etc.). Use historical data to train the selected model and adjust model parameters to improve prediction accuracy and analysis results. Set up a real-time data stream processing pipeline to ensure that new data can enter the model for prediction and analysis immediately;

[0095] Step 5.4: Implement real-time analysis; configure stream processing in the selected distributed computing framework and set the receiving, processing and output methods of data streams. Use window mechanisms (such as sliding windows, session windows) to group and analyze real-time data to extract meaningful real-time information. Output the analysis results to the specified storage (such as database, data warehouse) or through API for other systems to call;

[0096] Step 5.5: Real-time report generation; Design templates for real-time reports and determine the key indicators, charts, and data visualization elements included in the report. Implement the process of automatically generating reports, generate analysis reports regularly or in real time, and support multiple formats (such as PDF, HTML). Configure the notification mechanism to notify relevant personnel via email, message push, etc. when a new report is generated;

[0097] Step 5.6: Model evaluation and optimization; Regularly evaluate the performance of the model, use indicators (such as accuracy, recall, F1-score, etc.) to evaluate the model to ensure the effectiveness of the model. According to the evaluation results and changes in real-time data, iteratively optimize the model, retrain or adjust the algorithm to improve the analysis effect. Establish a user feedback mechanism, collect the use of analysis results and user opinions, and continuously improve the analysis process and model.

[0098] Step 6: Display the analysis results through data visualization tools, and support customized queries and report generation to provide real-time data support for decision-making.

[0099] The visualization tools such as Tableau and Power BI, in this implementation step, facilitate business personnel to perform decision analysis through data visualization.

[0100] The analysis results are presented through data visualization tools including:

[0101] Step 6.1: Data extraction: Using data visualization tools requires connecting to data stores (such as relational databases, NoSQL databases, and data warehouses);

[0102] Step 6.2: Data modeling; create a data model to establish relationships between different data tables, such as one-to-many, many-to-many, etc. Data aggregation, summarize and aggregate data to generate a view suitable for analysis. For example, by summarizing data by month, quarter, or year. Create calculated fields in the data model to calculate indicators such as growth rate, year-on-year, etc.

[0103] Step 6.3: Data visualization design; select the visualization type, such as line chart, bar chart, pie chart, etc. according to the nature of the data and analysis requirements. Customize the view, add interactive filters and slicers, so that users can customize query conditions and data views;

[0104] Step 6.4: Report generation: Allow business personnel to customize the report generation according to their needs, including selecting data, chart type, time range, etc. Provide export function, support exporting reports to PDF, Excel and other formats for easy sharing and archiving.

[0105] In summary, the bank data processing method based on the distributed architecture provided by the embodiment of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0106] 1. High scalability: Through data sharding and distributed storage, the system can be horizontally expanded and can handle large-scale bank transaction data;
