Data Science & The Role of the Data ScientistWhile the concept of data science has been around for decades, the notion of a data scientist has become an in-demand career leading to a rise of a new generation of data scientists. Social media platforms such as Facebook depend on data science to create innovative, interactive features that encourage users to get interested and stay that way. Here is a visual walk-through of this concept and the role of the data scientist.
The Rapid Growth in Unstructured Data
What’s critical to realize is that 35% more digital information is created today than the capacity exists to store it; and this number will jump to over 60% over the next several years. Most of these gigabytes of data will pass through the servers, network, or routers of an enterprise, which becomes responsible at that moment for managing that content, protecting user privacy, watching over account information, and protecting copyright.
