Data is everywhere in this era of digital transformation. Terabytes and Petabytes of data gets generated every hour through structured, unstructured and semi-structured data channels. Data driven decision making is the need of the hour where companies can gain proper insights for taking better decisions and getting competitive edge. Data Analysis is beneficial only when it can provide the insights which are helpful for strategic business decisions.
