The first step in most analytical workloads is to ingest the data that you need for your analysis into your data warehouse. For geospatial analysis involving point, line, or polygon data, ingesting data can be complex because geospatial data comes in myriad data formats. Two of the most popular geospatial formats are GeoJSON and GeoJSON-NL (newline-delimited geoJSON).
The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented global economic landscape that is dominated by loose monetary policies, low borrowing costs and influx of capital in the equity markets. Against that backdrop, Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) activity has surged since 2021 as companies are trying to take advantage of the current environment and adapt to the new business realities shaped by the global pandemic.
The KPIs that apply to each product are as different as products come. There are infinite variables that come into play when determining what exactly a KPI should be. Because these KPIs are centered around customer journeys, they are all user-based and purposely omit technical-based KPIs (such as crashes or errors). In a recent article in our Product Analytics Academy, we covered what makes a strategy a good one when understanding and choosing relevant metrics to form KPIs based on product analytics.
Businesses and organizations of all types have embraced cloud integration to transform data into business intelligence. The reason for this is simple: more and more business operations are happening in hybrid cloud — or even fully cloud-to-cloud – environments, and without proper tools to manage data in the cloud, data can become siloed, overlooked, or lost altogether.
The digital revolution has truly transformed modern organizations, embedding data and analytics in every business process and customer interaction. Advances in technology enable smart supply chains with predictive analytics, automated logistics for same-day delivery, and AI advisors that reduce medical errors. As this continues, workers in all roles will need new a new skill—data literacy—to collaborate with these systems and each other.
Data Science tools, algorithms, and practices are rapidly evolving to solve business problems on an unprecedented scale. This makes data science one of the most exciting fields to be in. As exciting as it is, practitioners face their fair share of challenges. There are well-known barriers that slow down predictive modeling or application development. Finding the right data and getting access to it are two of the top pain points we hear from our customers.
It’s the ultimate Catch-22. As businesses grow, executives need to keep a close watch on operations — but that growth itself can blur visibility. Multiple teams, data sources, and silos of information can create challenges in determining who is doing what, where inefficiencies exist, and what improvements should be made.
