    About this ebook

    Data Analytics For Beginners

    Knowing the data generated by your business every day is a key to success in the Data Analytic World that you are competing in. As there is so much data so, the organizations need to collect and store them. The data becomes valuable to businesses when it is analyzed.

In today's data-driven world, anything and everything may have significance, so there has been an attempt to record and keep virtually any data that we have the capacity to collect; and we have a great deal of capacity.

      Well, I agree that the book was somewhat repetitive. It is a very good book for a beginner or somebody just exploring the field. This really is an introductory book and doesn’t dive into any one subject or specifics.

    Introduction

    Even if you know nothing about data analytics, you have probably heard of these two words, especially if you are interested in any computer science field. So, what is data analytics? And is there any difference between data analysis and data analytics?

    Data analytics, especially big data analytics, has been and will continue to change and modify the world we live in.

    More specifically, data analytics is transforming the ways companies and businesses use the raw data they gather to make valuable conclusions about their products and services.

    In this digital world, making the right decisions makes a huge difference between succeeding and failing, and this is why data analytics is necessary.

    At a basic level, data analytics is a computer science that involves gathering various kinds of raw data in order to detect and analyze different trends and draw valuable conclusions based on massive data batches collected.
