Does figuring out rather its traditional or big data also apply to the Data science Field
Does figuring out rather its traditional or big data also apply to the Data science Field? because i was just writing down my Step by Step list and i got confused once you went over to the Data Science section seemed like a whole different part and so i do not know rather you still need to at that point figure out if you are working with big data or traditional, please let me know that would be amazing!
Hi Bibi-Ann!
Thanks for reaching out.
Everything that we cover in the Introduction to Data and Data Science course is relevant and applicable to the Data Science Field.
It is great that you are constructing a step-by-step list. My suggestion would be to keep it all along your studies in our Program, since you will reveal more and more about what we cover in this introduction course from now until the very end. Everything we teach falls into some of the categories we delineate in our infographic.
Regarding your question precisely - yes, the Data Science and/or Machine Learning tools you are using depend on the data you have at hand. Therefore, figuring out whether you are working with traditional or big data is essential to the next steps you'll make in your analysis.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Martin
