ClowdFlows is an open cloud based platform for composition, execution, and sharing of interactive data mining workflows. In this paper we extend the ClowdFlows platform with the ability to mine real-time data streams. This functionality was implemented by creating a specialized type of workflow component and a stream mining daemon that delegates the execution of workflows in real-time. In this way, we have transformed a batch data processing platform into a real-time stream mining platform with an intuitive user interface. The real-time analytics aspect of the platform is demonstrated in a Twitter sentiment analysis use case where the sentiment of tweets about whistleblower Edward Snowden was monitored for approximately one month.
