Applications of Data Engineering

-

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 engineering.

The basic application of data engineering includes  Data warehousing. It is the collection of data, which is not ordinary data but it is cleansed & processed.  

When we got the data in a data warehouse then we can generate many reports from that and then we can also get several insights from it and we can use those insights in the real-world applications and products, for example, it can be used in many data science projects e.g.  Information Extraction, Sentiment Analysis, Call center data analysis, and so on. 

When we have data then we cannot do anything (ethical) with that data if it is not being engineered, engineering is very important when it comes to different applications of data engineering products, there are many companies like Teradata, contentstudio.io, etc. using the data to generate reports on the daily basis and these reports are not just generated on daily basis but also on the basis of seconds and milliseconds i.e. near real-time, this was one of the applications of data engineering that we have just discussed so let's see some other use case of data engineering that we can think of is the use of data in IoT, Machine Learning tasks, AI-oriented systems, and the list goes on.
That's it for today, hope you have enjoyed this short and a well pending blog post, I literally posted any such blog post after around 8 months or so. 

Happy Learning :)

   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.

1-Machine Learning : Start...

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

I don't know what should be the title of this blog post, but let's call it " A survey of the final year university students ". Pretty long title, huh? Okay, let me tell you about this survey... 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

How to take notes in Freshman Year ?

-

Yes, you have to take notes in the university class!  Before talking about the notetaking strategy, we will understand the importance of taking notes. Importance Of Taking Notes No doubt there are a few students who can produce good results without even taking notes in the class. But their number is least. Most of us need to make good notes in the class especially when we are in university. Notes are important because: They help us to keep track of what we have studied in the whole semester. Notes help us to prepare for the exams, in a very short time. We can refer to our notes for short quizzes in the eleventh hour. In addition to reading and listening, writing notes increases the ability to memorize the important concepts. It helps you to realize that you have done something in the class. Now that we have understood Why to take notes? Let's dig into the notetaking strategy  Notes taking Strategies One of my friends Ramlah Aamir Aziz used to take note

Frameworks vs Libraries vs Services

-

Framework, libraries and services are usually overlapped. In this blog post we'll see how are these things different from one another. First let's have a look at framework .. Let's tokenize this word. Framework is composed of two terms. one is frame and second is work. Frame is anything that you can put something into . Like a photo frame, you have some sort of skeleton in which you can put your photo. but the most important thing is that your photo must be of the size of the frame. If this isn't the case then you might need to buy some other frame or you might need to cut your photo from the borders, or the bottom or the sides or from anywhere. (in order to fit it into the frame) The second word is "work" what does work mean... Well according to Physics you are only doing work if and only if some force is applied and you cover displacement in the direction of applied force. But this is not the case with this work word. Here the work is nothing

Elasticsearch and Redis : NoSql

-
Image
The colorful  bubble logo  is of Elasticsearch , while the redish logo is of Redis . First let's talk about Elastic search.. Elasticsearch is an open source search engine. Now, what is a search engine? Search engine is basically a website, for example: google.com, yahoo.com, bing and MSN. What we look as Google chrome, Safari or Internet Explorer is basically a Web browser. Let's say we type "www.facebook.com" in a web browser's address bar , then the web browser will take us directly to the website "facebook.com". As for search engine, if we type in its search bar , "www.facebook.com", then it will open up different links according to the search algorithm. So Elasticsearch is like a search engine. But it is different from traditional search engines. Like in most of the search engines, tables are used to store data, while elasticsearch is no schema based search engine. In place of tables, JSON documents are used in Elasticsearch. I
