Since there are so many areas of data analytics, it would be impossible to cover each of them extensively in one semester. We were to research a topic from a list and talk about how it relates to data analytics and certain concepts we covered in the semester. The topic I chose was ‘Internet of Things’ and what I found was not to my surprise, that it goes hand in hand with data analytics, and also almost all technology. This project, and course truly showed me how big data analytics is in the real world; It is the basis of information systems.
