Business Analytics is the study of data, through statistical and operation analysis, formation of predictive models, application of optimization techniques and the communication of these results to customers, business partners and colleague executives. In layman terms, the data that is being generated from various sources like social media, live streaming data, real time data, in huge volume, in a fraction of seconds, needs to be studied, sorted, fabricated and fragmented, so that the data can be translated into a meaningful and vital information. As, every single organization across industries are transforming themselves into a data science driven organization, the fabricated data plays an important role to understand customer insight, products/services enhancement and up gradation, and to take strategic decisions on organizational expansion and development.
So, the wholesome and rigorous study of the huge data by using various big data and analytics tools is called Business Analytics.
As the e-Commerce business has grown exponentially over the last few years across industries and the organizations are becoming data science driven org. Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone. This data comes from everywhere: sensors used to gather climate information, posts to social media sites, digital pictures and videos, purchase transaction records, and cell phone GPS signals to name a few. This data is Big Data. Big data spans three dimensions: Volume, Velocity and Variety.
Data science is the study of the generalizable extraction of knowledge from data, yet the key word is science. It incorporates varying elements and builds on techniques and theories from many fields, including signal processing, mathematics, probability models, machine learning, statistical learning, computer programming, data engineering, pattern recognition and learning, visualization, uncertainty modeling, data warehousing, and high performance computing with the goal of extracting meaning from data and creating data products.
Big Data & Business Analytics sector is booming exponentially per year. According to the recent study by technology researcher International Data Corp., the Big Data in India is expected to grow at nearly 38 % annually. There are n number of jobs which are vacant in every sector due to the gap that has been developed between the employees who have an edge over Data Science Tools and Techniques and supply of such employees who can add value to the organization. In current scenario the demand of such data savvy professionals is huge and supply is very less and the demand is expected to be much more in coming years. In the current developmental-phase of Big Data, Companies are investing billions of dollars in such platforms in order to transform themselves into a Data Science driven organizations.
