  $dataDBA = $db_adaptor->get_AnalysisDataAdaptor;

   analysis_data table holds LONGTEXT data for use by the analysis system.
   This data is general purpose and it's up to each analysis to
   determine how to use it.
   This Adaptor module is used to access/store this data.

  my ($self, $data_id) = @_;

  my $sql = "SELECT data FROM analysis_data WHERE analysis_data_id = ?";
  my $sth = $self->prepare($sql);
  $sth->execute($data_id);

  my ($data) = $sth->fetchrow_array();
  $sth->finish();
  return $data;
