Cracking the Code: A Comprehensive Data Analysis Journey

 The data analysis process

1- Prepare the data

2- Model

3- Analyze

- Descriptive Analysis: Describe what the data looks like in its basic form.

- Exploratory Analysis: Dig deeper to try and find interesting patterns or relationships between different parts of the data.

- Inferential Analysis: Use available data to make guesses or predictons about things outside the data.

- Predictive Analysis: Use statistics to predict what might happen in the future based on what's happened in the past.

4- Visualize

5- Manage


Gathering the right data

1- Identify the Analysis Purpose

for example: Drive product development

2- Type of Data

for example: Market trends data

                               Competitor data

                               Sales Data

3- Scope of Data

For example: Dates: last 5 years

                               Products: Mountain and road bikes

                               Regions: Europe


Processing and Analzing the data 

Define Analysis Purpose

Data collection ; "Raw data" For example: Sales

                                 Customer

                                 Manufacturing

                                                                                                                       Purchasing

                                                                                                         Inventory

                                                                                                         Marketing

Data Processing

Data exploration and analysis

Data reporting


Example issues of raw data

1- Duplicate entries

2- Missing values

3- Different format

4- Multiple sources

We can fix these issues with ETL Process:

Extract

Transform

Load

Stored Procedure in SQL

 What is a stored procedure?    -> A set of of SQL statements stored and executed on the database server. Benefits of stored procedures : 1- Reduction in network traffic 2- Improvement in performance 3- Reuse of code 4- Increase in security How to work with stored procedures: Call from: a) Dynamic SQL statements b) External applications For example: CALL UPDATE_SAL("E1001", 1)

From an Eye Of a Data Enjoyer: How combining data sources gives business insights in Power BI

  What are Flat Files?     Flat files are common type of data source that can be used for ETL or extract, load, and transform in Power BI. Examples of flat files include CSV, TXT, and Microsoft Excel files.     In Power BI, datasets and data sources are important terms and you must understand the differences between the two. A dataset is what you get when you use the Get Data feature to bring in data from a file, template app, or live source. It includes information about the data source, credentials, and a portion of the data itself. When you create reports and dashboards, you review the data from the dataset.     However, the data in dataset comes from a data source. A data source can be an online service, a cloud database, or a local file or server. So, to put it simply, a dataset is like a container that holds some of the data from a data source. The data source where the data comes from. An example of a data source could be a cloud database like A...
