The history of data mining

It is related to development of data mining directly that mass data accumulation became possible.
Collection of data in a digital form took that I did data analysis with a computer into consideration, and it was already performed in 1960's when I read the history of data mining.
Language SQL for relational data base and the operation appeared in 1980's, and dynamic data analysis was enabled on demand.
I reached it in 1990's, and the quantity of data increased explosively.
Data warehouse has begun to be used for accumulation of data.
With this, a general idea of data mining appears as technique to handle data in large quantities in a database, and it is the history of new data mining that technique of a statistical analysis or search technology in the field of artificial intelligence came to be applied.
