Introducing MovieStream

To better illustrate the design of our architecture, we will introduce a practical scenario. Let's assume that we have just been appointed to head the data science team of MovieStream, a fictitious Internet business that streams movies and television shows to its users.

MovieStream system is outlined in the following diagram:

MovieStream's current architecture

As we can see in the preceding diagram, currently, MovieStream's content editorial team is responsible for deciding which movies and shows are promoted and shown in various parts of the site. They are also responsible for creating the content for MovieStream's bulk marketing campaigns, which include e-mail and other direct marketing channels. Currently, MovieStream collects basic data on what titles are viewed by users on an aggregate basis and has access to some demographic data collected from users when they sign...
