# POC Initiative: Generic Data Analytics MCP Server
## Problem Statement
Teams have data in JSON/CSV files but lack an easy, AI-assisted way to explore, analyze, and generate insights from ANY dataset. Current solutions require custom coding for each data source, making analysis slow and inaccessible to non-technical users.
## Solution Vision
Build a **dataset-agnostic** MCP server that automatically adapts to any structured data (JSON/CSV), discovers schemas dynamically, and provides intelligent analytics capabilities. The AI can analyze customer data, sales records, survey responses, inventory data, or any business dataset through the same interface.
## Core Design Principles
### 1. Dataset Agnostic
- Works with any structured data without hardcoded schemas
- Automatically discovers column types, relationships, and constraints
- Adapts analysis techniques to data characteristics
### 2. Schema Discovery
- Dynamic column detection and type inference
- Automatic identification of categorical vs numerical vs temporal data
- Intelligent suggestions for analysis based on data patterns
### 3. Adaptive Analytics
- Generic segmentation that works on any categorical columns
- Correlation analysis that adapts to available numerical data
- Time series analysis when temporal columns are detected
### 4. Conversational Guidance
- AI prompts that guide users through data exploration
- Context-aware suggestions based on current dataset
- Interactive tutorials for complex analytics operations
## Test Data Flexibility
### Example Dataset A: E-commerce Orders
```json
[
{
"order_id": "ord_001",
"customer_id": "cust_123",
"product_category": "electronics",

"order_date": "2024-11-15",
"region": "west_coast",

"customer_segment": "premium"
}
]
```
### Example Dataset B: Employee Survey

emp_003,marketing,9.1,5.5,hybrid,senior
```
### Example Dataset C: Product Performance

### Storage Benefits
**✅ Zero Complexity**: No file management, caching, or persistence logic
**✅ Immediate Access**: Instant dataset operations without I/O overhead
**✅ Perfect for Demos**: Load sample data and start analyzing immediately
**✅ Memory Efficient**: Pandas DataFrames are already optimized for memory usage
**✅ Session-Based**: Clean slate on each restart - perfect for experimentation
### Memory Considerations
**Typical Dataset Sizes**:
- 1K rows × 10 columns = ~1MB memory
- 10K rows × 20 columns = ~10MB memory
- 100K rows × 50 columns = ~100MB memory
**Best Practices**:
- Sample large datasets before loading (`df.sample(10000)`)
- Provide memory usage feedback to users
- Clear datasets when no longer needed (`del loaded_datasets[name]`)
