DataOps engineers are responsible for designing the data assembly line that allows data engineers and data scientists to gain insight from their analytics and research. DataOps engineers use processes and technologies to improve the speed and quality of projects being worked on. The DataOps philosophy can transform data teams, resulting in smaller development times, improved […]
Fundamentals of Digital Twins
Digital twins can present a virtual replica of physical components, processes, or systems to enable improved understanding of the performance characteristics of such entities. With digital twins, industry operators can visualize, predict, and optimize the performance of individual components within a system or process, or the entire process from a remote location. According to Microsoft, […]
Data Science vs. Data Analytics
The data scientist and the data analyst represented two of the “most in-demand, high-paying jobs in 2021.” The previous year, the World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report 2020 listed these jobs at the top of a list representing most in-demand jobs across industries. In data analytics, which is often referred to as business analytics, […]
Case Study: Executing an Effective Data Strategy
Few tasks are more logistically and technologically daunting than providing air, land, and sea transportation for the U.S. military across the entire world. Yet that is precisely the mission of the United States Transportation Command, or USTRANSCOM. According to a Congressional Research Service report, on any given day USTRANSCOM conducts over 240 air missions, sends […]
How to Become a Data Analyst
Data analysts translate raw data into useful insights, and they are also responsible for gathering the data, organizing and analyzing it, and then presenting their findings. Data analysts are in high demand, and there aren’t enough data analysts to fill all the positions. People with the right skills can fill these positions. A degree is […]
Data Science Best Practices
When done right, Data Science delivers a lot of measurable values like improved products and services, enhanced customer experiences, sales growth, new business developments channels, and overall business efficiency. However, according to most reliable industry publications, most Data Science projects fail because the Data Science best practices are not followed. Why Do Businesses Need Data […]
Semantic Technology Trends in 2022
Semantic technology trends are expanding well beyond an interesting, more advanced search engine. Besides providing scientists with a more functional search engine, semantic technology is now being used to improve artificial intelligence and machine learning. Semantic technology uses a variety of tools and methods designed to add “meaning” to a computer’s understanding of data. When […]
Data Science vs. Decision Science: A New Era Dawns
Data Science vs. Decision Science: Basic Descriptions In Data Science, a variety of advanced technologies like data mining, statistics, predictive analytics, AI, and machine learning are used in conjunction to deliver solutions for business problems. In Decision Science, analyzed data is “interpreted” to arrive at business decisions that meet specific objectives. So while Data Science […]
The Intersection of Self-Service Analytics and Machine Learning
The terms “self-service analytics” (SSA) and “machine learning” (ML) are frequently used interchangeably, but the concepts behind these terms are a world apart. In self-service analytics, specific tools are designed to aid the user in inputting data or interpreting results (output). On the other hand, a machine learning algorithm is a special software that has […]
Data Management vs. Data Science
The shift in the business perception of data has now catapulted Data Management into new heights. Data Science is a core component of Data Management now, but Data Management and Data Science are often seen as two different activities. Working among data analysts, data engineers, and DBAs, data scientists spend their time getting the data […]
