Data processing
Once your data has been stored securely, the next step is processing it to extract meaningful insights. Data processing involves cleaning, transforming, and analyzing data to make it suitable for data science and decision-making. But how do you ensure that your data is processed accurately and efficiently? What tools and techniques can you use to transform raw data into valuable information?
Data processing typically involves three main stages: data preparation, data transformation, and data analysis. During the data preparation phase, your data is cleansed, and any inconsistencies, errors, or missing values are addressed. This is an important step to ensure that your subsequent analyses are based on accurate and reliable data. There are many proprietary and open source solutions to help you and your team in this process. It is also often helpful to involve subject matter experts from the business who can identify and help rectify any issues in the data.
