Could you guys recommend some good tools or frameworks that can perform text analytics on the Big data(multi structured) and should be open source?
Look at NLTK http://nltk.org/ and Google Prediction API. I think It's good stuff.

I'm trying to lift all the User IDs that match a segment in Adobe Analytics and store them somewhere (anywhere really), so I can then feed them into an action system for targeting.
Documentation seems hard to find - anyone have ideas on how I could achieve this?
Not sure if there's APIs or SDKs that let me pull this data, or pre-built connectors into something like Google Sheets, but again documentation seems light at best.
The simplest tool to use would likely be the Report Builder. It's an Excel extension by Adobe to export the data. It's pretty powerful. Can do pretty much everything AA can.
You could also generate data feeds and ETL the data from there to wherever you need it. It's a bit more advanced though.
Finally, you have the customer journey API, which would now be an even more advanced level of ETL.
Otherwise, yes, Adobe is notorious for how bad their documentation is and how hard it is to find it. It's almost like they don't want the good documentation to be there in order to sell more of their certification courses.
Note that sometimes when you google something and get to their forum to see the answer, Adobe will attempt to hide the answer behind the authentication wall. Just open that link in incognito and you'll be good. Adobe is pretty weird.
Does anybody know of a web based Rich Text Editor like TinyMCE or FCKEditor which supports realtime collaboration? I know of systems like EtherPad, but I'm interested in finding something I can embed into another application, rather than something that works standalone.
Ideally something open source, and works on the .NET platform would be great.
Cheers

There are
beweevee, using .NET, but it is not open source.

While there are several all in one solutions they often tend to be a bit lacking in features. I believe this to be because building a great editor and a great collaboration infrastructure are both very difficult and require different skill sets. It's very hard to do both very well. On the other hand if you find one that meets your needs it might be the simplest approach. ProseMirror comes to mind as a good example that does it pretty well.
I prefer to take a great editor with a great API and pair it up with some real time collaboration technology. Currently Quill and CKEditor 5 are great editors that have sufficient API's to enable real time collaboration. Both of them were built with collaboration in mind. You can pair them up with a realtime back end like the Google Drive Realtime API by Google or Convergence offered by Convergence Labs (full disclosure, I am a founder at Convergence Labs). Or if you are looking for an open source alternative you can look at Together JS or ShareDB.
For a fully javascript based solution try etherpad!
There is a .NET Client example on HTTP API and a page on other examples
Also refer this jQuery demo that can be embedded into your existing solution on the .NET Platform
I would like to know about the LCDS. What it does? How to configure it? Do I need to know Java?
Can I get some sort of tutorial pdf for it?
I am a new flex developer.I would like
to know about the LCDS. What it does?
One of the major feature of LCDS is it provides a server side push implementation to your flex app.
How to configure it? Would not know, since it does not work in sync with c# have not explored it as much as I would have liked.
Do I need to know Java?
Yes, unfortunately Java is the major player in supported language, else I would be all over it.
Adobe® LiveCycle Data Services ES is a powerful solution for creating data-intensive rich Internet applications (RIAs) that integrate with J2EE applications and business logic.
That is from the adobe site: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=lcds26_td
Can I get some sort of tutorial pdf
for it?
Best way is to go through the tutorials on the adobe web pages. If you are using hibernate here is an extra example. http://blog.comtaste.com/2007/07/livecycle_data_services_and_hi.html and http://iamjosh.wordpress.com/2007/11/08/building-a-livecycle-data-service-application/

and welcome to the great world of Flex. One thing is for sure - your going to enjoy it.
It is always good to satrt with the official site: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/dataservices/
if you want to see what can be done with Flex in general and with LCDS, install Tour-de-flex: http://gregsramblings.com/2008/12/12/livecycle-data-services-and-tour-de-flex/
This Blog was a good start point to new guys where I work. The most important suggestions he made was to:
1. Get to know google
2. Check out this lynda course.
Last but not least, AdobeTV have great videos to watch! see: AdobeTV Data services search page
By the way, AdobeTV itself is fully build with Flex.
Be sure what LCDS can do for you with respect to Coldfusion and Flex/AIR.
There is likely something there that will save you a great deal of time, money and coding.
...Yes I've seen:
Best Resources for Learning JavaFX?
but it doesn't really answer the question. Maybe there just aren't any good resources at the moment?
UPDATE:
http://developers.sun.com/rss/javafx.xml is OK
If you have Google Reader you could use their Discover tool to find feeds, e.g. JavaFX feeds.
Technorati has a large selection
Google Blog Search also has some results.
Note that I don't even know what JavaFX is - your best bet, as with any topic, is to use the social search tools out there to find authors who write about your particular topic, and then subscribe to them if you like what you read.
Something I've taken to recently is using Google Alerts and Google Reader (any RSS reader will do) to get reports as they come in of searches for a particular topic. You get access to what people are searching for within a topic and what they eventually decide on. I've discovered a few interesting pages on PHP since I started this, it's a useful tool.
What are the various charting tools that are available for displaying charts on a web page using ASP.NET?
I know about commercial tools such as Dundas and Infragistics.
I could have "googled" this but I want to know the various tools that SO participants have used? Any free charting tools that are available are also welcome to be mentioned.
If you do not mind using Flash to display your graphs, Open Flash Charts supports a lot of languages. This was also the choice used for the Stackoverflow reputation tracker piece as mentioned in this question
I like google charts, but check the license before using.
Hey - don't know if this works for ASP.NET but I've used the ZedGraph tool for my winforms apps and it is really nice.
ZedGraph works superbly in ASP .NET, and is a superb charting package. Really flexible, and makes attractive graphs. The graphs are generated as static images (PNG by default) and it automatically deletes old ones.
Also, it is widely supported, has a great wiki, and a decent code-project tutorial (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/zedgraph.aspx).
I used Chart Director for a medium sized project, and loved it. It's incredibly feature-rich, has pretty good documentation, and an amazingly good support forum -- it's one of those ones where you ask a question, and a guy who works for the company that produces the software almost invariably answers it within a few hours. I used it with PHP and MySQL, but as far as I know it works with ASP.NET as well.
You might like to take a look at the new Google Visualization API. Saw a presentation on this at yesterday's Google Dev. Day in London and it looked very interesting.
While it is currently only able to work with data retrieved from Google Spreadsheets, expanding it to handle data retrieval from other sources is a high priority for the Viz. team.
HTH.
cheers,
Rob
What about using Flotr? The syntax is pretty clean and you can produce some pretty nifty graphs (Check out some examples) with minimal effort.
If you need to build charts FAST then have a look at this rocket:
dsec.com/csp_charts.png
You can call the chart server from your ASP.Net scripts.
If you use SQL Server, then SQL Server reporting services is not bad. It includes a free version of Dundas chart controls which allows you to do basic charting. There are are couple of issues with presentation and making it Firefox friendly but it's a pretty simple solution. - If you've SQL Server of course!
We have used Telerik's RadChart and MSSQL Reporting Services.
I would look no farther than Dundas if you have the cha-ching to pay for it. I've used it on several projects and not found a better option. Cheaper with better licensing, yes, but not better in terms of functionality.
For free flash charting, you may look at FusionCharts Free. Or, if you want more professional and are ready to shell out $$$, look at FusionCharts v3
