The story behind this thing: Well, one day I thought about writing a post on Facebook to ask people about their sentiments and reviews regarding the final year of university life, then another thought knocked my head to write a full blog post on this topic. Then I disseminated a google form for this purpose. The google form was saying: "Hello, final semester people! I thought to collect reviews of 2020 graduates specifically of NUST and other IT universities. I am planning to add these to my blog post. Please take a few seconds to fill this form, thank you." So that was a brief story behind this whole thing, Now let's have a look at the most awaited questions and the corresponding responses...  Question#1:  Do you feel like a better hu

John went to the cafeteria 10 times at 1:00 P.M. on 10 Fridays, each time the cafeteria was closed at that particular time. John decided not to go to cafe at 1:00 P.M. on Friday because the cafe will be closed.  But wait! How did John know that the cafe will  also be closed on next Friday at 1:00 P.M.??? Yes, you are absolutely right.  "John Learned from his Experience that the Task of going to the cafeteria at 1:00 P.M. on Fridays resulted in waste of time, since the cafe was closed on each Friday, so it will Perform the same on the next Friday." In the above scenario, John learned something so we can call it " John Learning ". Similarly, if we replace John with some sort of Machine, that can learn from the Experience or from the History about how the tasks were performed in the past given certain situation. Such that the Machine will perform the same if the same task happen again in near future. Then this will be called as Machine Learning. To mak

   Data is a new oil. To channelize this data we need proper pipelines. These pipelines are mostly called ETL or data pipelines.  There are various tools out there to work out these Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) operations.  Some of the scripting tools are:  - Python - SQL and NoSQL Apache provides a wide range of products that can be used as Data Engineering tools.  Some of the amazing apache DE services comprised of; - Hadoop - Spark - Kafka - Cassandra - Hive In addition, some cool DE tools are: - Tableau - Talend - MapReduce These DE tools provide a way to manage the data pipelines in a more effective, efficient, and better way.  Almost every Data-Oriented company in the corporate sector is highly dependent upon these technologies. They are leveraging many of the above-mentioned mechanisms for promising Data Services and Architecture. That's it for today. Hope you have enjoyed this article.

Shaping the career from the very start of your four-year degree program is very important.  Why shape your career from the very start? When you were a child, you were so energetic towards climbing walls, climbing trees, making mud houses, getting your clothes dirty with mud, spoiling the room walls with pencil, breaking toys and doing other mischievous stuff. And  then you get older and wiser. The point is that when you are at the start of your career then you could have a great margin for risk-taking and for trying out different things that you feel passionate about. And in case you get a failure, still you would have plenty of time to start again in a better and effective way. But this demands something beforehand, Prerequisites Attitude One thing that you will require is the attitude. The attitude of giving the right direction to yourself. And Be smart in your decisions.

In a previous blog post about data engineering, we went through several many concepts related to data engineering such as data modeling, and then we went through different types of databases, for example, relational databases and we also got a glimpse of relational as well as NoSQL databases. And in today's blog post we will be writing about data engineer applications. Which are basically the use cases of data engineering 1st let's see what data engineering applications mean; so basically when we have data and we have engineered it then there are several things that we can do with that data and these things that we can do with processed data are the use cases of the data engineering. For example: If we have filled our containers with the data then it's not of any good use if it is not clean and well-formed. If your data is well-formed and if there are no logical mistakes, missing values, and garbage then we can easily perform the use cases and applications of data enginee
