• Data analytics is the process of examining data sets in order to draw conclusions
about the information they contain, increasingly with the aid of specialized
systems and software. Data analytics technologies and techniques are widely
used in commercial industries to enable organizations to make more-informed
business decisions and by scientists and researchers to verify or disprove
scientific models, theories and hypotheses.

• As a term, data analytics predominantly refers to an assortment of applications,


from basic business intelligence (BI), reporting and online analytical processing
(OLAP) to various forms of advanced analytics. In that sense, it's similar in
nature to business analytics, another umbrella term for approaches to analyzing
data -- with the difference that the latter is oriented to business uses, while data
analytics has a broader focus. The expansive view of the term isn't universal,
though: In some cases, people use data analytics specifically to mean advanced
analytics, treating BI as a separate category.

• Data analytics initiatives can help businesses increase revenues, improve


operational efficiency, optimize marketing campaigns and customer service
efforts, respond more quickly to emerging market trends and gain a
competitive edge over rivals -- all with the ultimate goal of boosting business
performance. Depending on the particular application, the data that's analyzed
can consist of either historical records or new information that has been
processed for real-time analytics uses. In addition, it can come from a mix of
internal systems and external
Slidesdata sources.

What constitutes analytics?
Analytics is the discovery, interpretation, and communication of
meaningful patterns in data; and the process of applying those
patterns towards effective decision making. In other words,
analytics can be understood as the connective tissue between data
and effective decision making, within an organization.

• Business analytics, or simply analytics, is the use of
data, information technology, statistical analysis,
quantitative methods, and mathematical or computer-
based models to help managers gain improved insight
about their business operations and make better, fact-
based decisions.
• Business analytics is “a process of transforming data into
actions through analysis and insights in the context of
organizational decision making and problem solving.”
Business analytics is supported by various tools such as
Microsoft Excel and various Excel add-ins, commercial
statistical software packages such as SAS or Minitab, and
more-complex business intelligence suites that integrate
data with analytical software.

• These models can predict the


value of a target variable or
predict the group into which the
target variable belongs to.
• For example
– A Linear Regression model can
be used to predict the amount
of expenditure on a particular
product based on input
variables income, age, and
gender.

– A Logistic regression model can


be used to predict defaulters and
non-defaulters on credit card
