Data and Data Analysis for Beginners

Abstract

Big data is a new driver of the world economic and societal changes. The world’s data collection is reaching a tipping point for major technological changes that can bring new ways in decision making, managing our health, cities, finance and education. While the data complexities are increasing including data’s volume, variety, velocity and veracity, the real impact hinges on our ability to uncover the value in the data through Data Analytics technologies. Data Analytics poses a grand challenge on the design of highly scalable algorithms and systems to integrate the data and uncover large hidden values from datasets that are diverse, complex, and of a massive scale. Potential breakthroughs include new algorithms, methodologies, systems and applications in Data Analytics that discover useful and hidden knowledge from the Data efficiently and effectively. I am trying to make the Data and Data Analysis simple to understand since the field is already impacting the civilisation. As the technology grows, steps linked to Data and Data Analysis are taking part for example Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. In this paper, we will mainly focus on Data and Data Analysis.
