What is big data?

Big data deals with analyzing data sets that are too large and complex for traditional data tools. Professionals who can manage big data are vital for large and growing companies in various fields, including finance, information technology, communications, logistics, and retail.

What is data science?

Data science professionals obtain and create meaning from raw data. Individuals trained in data science can use scientific processes, algorithms, and systems to develop new and better data modeling and provide production process information to guide decision-making stakeholders in industries ranging from IT to manufacturing.

What does analytics mean?

Analytics is the field of evaluating data. Analytics is valuable for all businesses, from small family companies with simple data to large multinational corporations concerned with big data analytics.

Professionals trained in data analytics can reveal the relationships and trends in data. Big data analysts, scientists, and researchers permit businesses to develop informed decisions, model outcomes, and enhance business intelligence. For example, data analysts can use Google Analytics to reveal information about website performance. They can use the data they acquire and analyze to suggest design changes to increase website traffic and conversions.

What is Big Data?

View All Big Data Courses

Big data is a term that refers to the large volume of structured and unstructured data that businesses take in on a day-to-day basis. This data can be analyzed for insights that lead to better decisions and more strategic business moves. Big data can be described by the following characteristics:

• Volume – Organizations collect data from multiple sources, such as business transactions, industrial equipment, social media, and smart devices.
• Velocity – Because data streams into businesses at such a high speed, it must be handled in a timely manner. Sensors, smart meters, and RFID tags drive the need to deal with torrents of data quickly.
• Variety – Data comes in many formats, such as numeric data in traditional databases to unstructured documents, videos, emails, stock ticker data, and audio files.

Big data, like any other type of data, needs to be analyzed in order to be valuable. Big data analytics is the use of analytic techniques against these diverse data sets. The need for professionals who can manage this data for large companies is constantly growing. Big data analysts, scientists, and researchers enable businesses to make more informed decisions, model and predict outcomes, and enhance overall business intelligence.
