Data Analytics FAQ

By devising strategies, using third party and an organization’s first party data, the insights derived reflect the most recent trends in the industry. 

Being more data-driven allows you to make better informed decisions. It can help you make personalized choices for your organization while also staying relevant to industry trends. Data analytics can be the step for you to take your organization to the next level and help you diagnose areas for improvement and optimization.

Data analytics helps turn those intimidating datasets into a reliable source for insights specific to your needs and your experience. While scholarly articles and other resources found online can be helpful, insights from your own data helps shed light on your organization’s specific problems, helping you devise specific and effective solutions. 

Big data refers to data that cannot be easily processed through traditional methods due to their size, quantity or complexity. The concept is defined by three main characteristics of big data in the 3 Vs: 

  1. Volume – describes the amount of data and their form

  3. Variety – describes the type of data collected.
