Thank you very much for the clarification.
Sorry, I didn't think any of that info was relevant at the time as from what I saw on this forum, too much info often results in people passing over your post, and because I am not looking to hire anyone to do it for me, more so just to find out if there are more user friendly options out there, preferably windows based.
To answer your question, first starts with a little more explanation, Sure the blockchain certainly qualifies as "big data" in its entirety, but the data I hope to extract from it is very far from "big" in comparison, transaction volume, lists of addresses used, positive balance addresses etc. still would only number in the few millions of entries, Microsoft Excel has a max row height of 1,048,576 rows, so a few page workbook could handle most of the data, although most often for analytical purposes I use Microsoft Access. Formatting the data once extracted is not such a big deal as typically i can find someone on Fiverr to write a simple java app that would parse and convert the data from the format I receive it in to the format I need to import it into excel, access, or on occasion tanagra.
Again, that being said, if your reply was in hopes of finding a paying client, I am not the one. At most I spend on my projects of curiosity is $5 - $25 for someone on fiver to do something for me. This thread was more to find out what if anything is available in the bitcoin space that is not solely linux or advanced computer programmer level stuff.
No, I am not looking for any clients. I was just trying to get a better "sniff test" on who's asking.
In my experience, the reason that you aren't getting any suitable answers is that you don't look like somebody who is
n't interested in learning anything new. Microsoft Office could be actually quite helpful, but you would have to learn how to set up proper Microsoft SQL backend for Microsoft Access and utilize the OLAP functionality there. With the clarification above you made clear that you even aren't a wannabe in big data.
I originally thought that you are something akin to a new instance of the German crackpot LvM (
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/lvm-103358) with his "BTC violates GAAP, result a mess." (
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/btc-violates-gaap-result-a-mess-211835) . But then you wrote like somebody who is forced to use Windows because of the organizational constraints, not because you just "don't wanna".
Thanks again.
