BUSINESS ANALYTICS

Business analytics can be defined as the extensive use of data, statistics, and modeling to make or better understand past events and better predict future events. Business analytics may include predictive analytics, business intelligence, human performance management, data visualization, and many other subjects. Though analytics have always been a part of the business toolbox, technology advances allow greater analysis of larger and more diverse data sets.
