We focus on client needs and deliver, in partnership with them, pragmatic and concrete answers to their questions. We transform RAW DATA into ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS 4
2. Definitions 5
Definition of Data Science Data Science Data Science is an interdisciplinary field about processes and systems to extract knowledge or insights from large volumes of data in various forms, either structured or unstructured, which is a continuation of some of the data analysis fields such as statistics, data mining and predictive analytics. (Source: Wikipedia) 6
Definition of Big Data Analytics Big Data Analytics Big data analytics is the process of examining large data sets containing a variety of data types to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations, market trends, customer preferences and other useful business information. The analytical findings can lead to more effective marketing, new revenue opportunities, better customer service, improved operational efficiency, competitive advantages over rival organizations and other business benefits.
