This book is aimed at business analysts, data analysts, data scientists, data engineers, and software engineers for whom a typical day may currently involve analyzing data using spreadsheets or relational databases, perhaps using VBA, Structured Query Language (SQL), or even Python to compute statistical aggregations (such as averages) and to generate graphs, charts, pivot tables and other reporting mediums.
With the explosion of data in all of its various formats and frequencies, perhaps you are now challenged with not only managing all of that data, but understanding what it is telling you. You have most likely heard the terms big data, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, but now wish to understand where to start in order to take advantage of these new technologies and frameworks, not just in theory but in practice as well, to solve your business challenges. If this sounds familiar, then this book is for you!
