Canvas Crawler URL: http://canvascrawler.eu-gb.mybluemix.net/

Motivation

• Canvas alteration needs a great amount of data to create new models

  --> collect data for future analysis?

  --> setting up a model database containing existing canvases

• Extracted information come as unstructured data ?

  --> No-SQL Database

• High manual effort for retrieving Lean Canvases

  --> need for software support

Architecture

• No Canvanizer API --> direct requests aren‘t possible
• Using Search Engines to detect Canvases instead
• Canvanizers Unique URL schema --> apply site-search
• Search string: site:canvanizer.com/canvas/*
• Definition of quality criteria

Bluemix --> Development:

• Node.js
• CloudantDB - Datenbank für Geschäftsmodelle
