Big Data Is As Misunderstood As Twitter Was Back In 2008
Boonsri Dickinson, Business Insider In 2008, when Howard Lindzon started StockTwits, no one knew what Twitter was. Obviously, that has changed.

3.3.3 Loading Data into a Table
3.3.3 Loading Data into a Table After creating your table, you need to populate it. The LOAD DATA and INSERT statements are useful for this.
