Per Wikipedia, Data Science is the extraction of knowledge from large volumes of data that are structured or unstructured, which is a continuation of the field data mining and predictive analytics, also known as knowledge discovery and data mining (KDD).
Does anyone know a “data scientist”? Data scientists work with large data sets, analysis models, and technological solutions to help businesses drive more data-driven decisions. This is known as data science. Data scientists should have these six skill sets:
Tech Skills
- Programmer
- Statistician
- Domain SME
People Skills
- Artist
- Client Facing
- Communicator
As you can imagine, it is very difficult to find people who have expertise in all 6 skills sets.
