Anyone who works in data knows: we have a problem. The problem is that most people don't understand what we do, so they can't get the best value from us. It's not their fault. We are the first to admit that we aren't good at explaining it. Because it's not easy to explain! This book does exactly that for you; clearly organised, concisely explained. Anyone in your organisation can pick up this short book and understand what data people do. You'll learn about the various roles within the data industry and the how their common themes fit together like a puzzle. We'll delve into key challenges and opportunities that data professionals face, and how best to navigate them. From there, we dive deeper into data engineering, business intelligence, data analytics, and data science. You'll learn about the essential tools and technologies used in each discipline, as well as best practices and real-world examples to help you understand the concepts. And we don't forget about data governance--we'll cover the importance of managing data quality, security, and privacy in any organization. This book has been described as "straightforward", "easy to understand", and "concise". So recommend or gift this book to someone you know who will benefit and learn, and you will benefit too.
