Data normalization organizes a relational database into related tables that reduce repeated facts and protect data integrity. Start by identifying entities and keys, then remove repeating groups, partial dependencies, and transitive dependencies. Most beginner designs focus on the first, second, and third normal forms before measuring whether selective denormalization helps specific queries.

What is Data Parsing?

Zeid AbughazalehZeid Abughazaleh on Jun 18, 2025

Data parsing is an important step in data processing as it helps businesses manage and analyze a vast amount of data. According to Exploding Topics, there is an estimated 402.74 million terabytes of data created each day. While not every terabyte will be useful to you, it is safe to assume you handle at least a couple of hundred gigabytes. Mowing through all that data can be time-consuming, error-prone, and inefficient. That is, if all the data is formatted the same, which it usually is not. This is where data parsing comes in.

How to Scrape Google Search Results: APIs, Python, and Proxies

Zeid AbughazalehZeid Abughazaleh on Apr 11, 2025

To collect Google search results programmatically, first choose the data source that matches the question. Use Google Search Console for performance data about a verified property, a managed SERP API for structured public-result observations, or an in-house collector only when direct automated access is appropriate and permitted. Proxies can supply location-specific network routes for a custom collector, but they do not grant access rights or guarantee a particular SERP.
