Regular Data have turned into “Big Data” waiting to be explored : Big Data are…o Live Data (Velocity) o Contextual Data (Volume)o User-Generated Data (Variability)

Analytics are the process of examining large amounts of data varying in types :

Social media activity reports Banking Account transactions Web server logs Internet clickstream Data Cellphone calls details GPS Coordinates & Navigation Mobile Apps activity Logs e-commerce activities reports Search queries and (many) basically any other type of data…

A Data Architect is an expert or a consultant who excels at analyzing data
