Techniques for defocusing queries over big datasets and dynamic datasets are provided to broaden search results and incorporate all potentially relevant data and avoid overly narrowing queries. An analytic component can receive queries directed at one region of a dataset and analyze the queries to generate inferences about the queries. The queries can then be defocused by a defocusing component and incorporate a larger dataset than originally searched to broaden the queries. The larger dataset can incorporate all, or a part of the original dataset and can also be disparate from the original dataset. Clusters of queries can also be merged and unified to deal with ‘local minima’ issues and broaden the understanding of the dataset. In other embodiments, dynamic data can be monitored and changes tracked, to ensure that all portions of the dataset are being searched by the queries.

The subject disclosure relates to using structured query language constructs in non-structured query language domains. For example, through mathematical and logical transformation of concepts from a key, value pair domain associated with structured query language data structures to graphical-related data structures, the value originating in the structured query language domain can be modified for use in non-structured query language domains. This can open up options in analytics and can solve some of the problems associated with liner algebra.

Techniques for efficiently performing queries are provided. A search component can receive a request for information based on data, and a management component can determine a degree of accuracy requested for the information. In turn, the search component can render the information based on the degree of accuracy requested. In an aspect, the search generates a query configured to determine the first information, and the management component instructs the search component to perform the query to a level of completion less than full completion when the degree of accuracy requested is below a predetermined threshold to cause the search component to render an estimation of the first information. In another aspect, a tracking component can track information associated with multiple query requests and an analysis determine and employ a related aspect of the tracked information to a new query request to determine an answer for a the new query request.

Data management techniques are provided for handling of big data. A data management process can account for attributes of data by analyzing or interpreting the data, assigning intervals to the attributes based on the data, and effectuating policies, based on the attributes and intervals, that facilitate data management. In addition, the data management process can determine relations among data in a data collection and generate and store approximate results concerning the data based on the attributes, intervals, and the policies.

The subject disclosure generally relates to dynamic user experience adaptation and services provisioning. A user experience component can provide a user experience (UX) to a user. The UX can include, but is not limited to, an operating system, an application (e.g., word processor, electronic mail, computer aided drafting, video game, etc.), a user interface, and so forth. A monitoring component can monitor feedback generated in association with interaction with the user experience by the user. An update component can analyze the feedback, and update a user model associated with the user based at least in part on the analysis, and an adaptation component can modify the user experience based at least in part the user model.
