Advanced Data Analysis with Power BI

24/04/2019: Power BI is extending and integrating more and more with advances in Data Analysis. In this article we will show some examples of how you can use Power BI in “what if” projections, Key Factor Analysis and time projections. “What if” parameters allow you to create different scenarios in which you can dynamically change the value of one parameter and see the effect of this change on your measure.

Data visualization - the apex of analytics course training

26/02/2018: Analyzing data is not a goal unto itself; there is a larger objective: to provide useful information and make business recommendations, all in support of decision-making. Thus, after having implemented the skills acquired in data analytics courses, i.e. having mined, collected, cleansed and processed the data, comes the next phase - presenting the data. In order to achieve the goal of facilitating decision-making, the results of the data analysis must be clear and sensible. Hence: data visualization. What is data visualization? Data visualization is essentially the presentation of data...

Why data analytics training is critical for every business

The importance of data analytics training to every business

22/02/2018: Dr. W. Edwards Deming is quoted as saying not so long ago: “In God we trust. All others must bring data.”. Our present-day business world is proof of that. Data, for business management, is as essential as air. 5 main steps to implement data analytics 1. Grow an in-house data team: There are many different skills involved in the whole process.

Will Power BI replace the full BI stack?

08/02/2018: Power BI is an excellent visualization tool, released by Microsoft in June 2015 and updated every month since then. It’s relatively cheap compared to other similar tools on the market (desktop version is completely free and online version for business starts from $9.99 a month). It’s easy and intuitive to use: visualization can be created in minutes by dragging and dropping fields on the report canvas. Power BI also includes a tool (Power Query) to modify and clean data, join and merge tables. In a way it’s a small ETL tool. Having said all that, Power BI cannot, and it’s not meant to,...

data analytics courses - a gateway to the future

05/02/2018: Air is funny. We cannot see it, yet we can’t live without it; it is invisible, yet it surrounds us at all time.

How might data analytics courses help businesses? Data is everywhere these days. Research...

How can a developer make Power BI dashboards do even more? Developing using Power BI APIs

Developers get more functionality from Power BI APIs?

01/02/2018: Developing using Power BI APIs The trend towards Big Data-driven operations means that organisations are holding more information than ever before. Left in its raw state however, this information is effectively useless. Information needs to be collated, queried and presented if it is to yield actionable insights. For all but the most skilled scientists, it will be impossible to make sense of the unstructured data held in the Big Data lake. Dashboards have been a mainstream staple for specific applications for many years. Dashboards are used by sales teams to track progress of deals, whilst...

Data Analytics | Data Science | which training course ??

16/01/2018: As Big Data becomes an integral part of the data-driven enterprise, businesses are encountering problems securing the skills they need to make sense of their data. Collecting data is relatively easy – extracting value from it, less so. As a result, there has been a surge in demand for professionals who can put raw data to work for the business. Spiralling salaries mean that employers may be better able to control costs by retraining or upskilling their existing workforce. But as they build-up their Big Data programs, businesses will need to understand the differences between data scientists...

Data Analytics Courses - the sky's the limit

16/01/2018: Big data is a big deal. The huge volume of data generated over just the last decade far exceeds the entire accumulated human data so far. Moreover, estimates predict that digital data will reach 40 zettabytes (40 trillion gigabytes) by the end of 2020; that’s a 50-fold growth. However, what makes it a really big deal is not the just the amount of data - it’s the ability to actually do something with it. And here we come upon a truly big problem in data analysis: after having harnessed the hardware required for storing and managing the data, data analytics professionals still have to sift...

Taking data analytics training courses and learning python for data analysis are a must for whoever wishes to participate in the global trend of dealing with big data. Not for nothing do the words python data science often appear together. The above-mentioned split between various data jobs is not set in stone; the best and...
