Big data refers to datasets that are too large and complex for conventional data processing applications to manage effectively. Challenges associated with big data for government include the capture, storage, analysis, search, sharing, transfer, visualization, querying, updating, and ensuring the privacy of information. These issues require robust solutions that align with public sector workflows, governance, and accountability standards.

This course is designed for Marketing Sales Professionals who are looking to delve deeper into the application of data science in their fields. The curriculum provides comprehensive coverage of various data science techniques used for upsales, cross-sales, market segmentation, branding, and customer lifetime value (CLV). **Differences Between Marketing and Sales** - How do sales and marketing differ? In simple terms, sales can be described as a process that focuses on individuals or small groups. Conversely, marketing targets larger audiences or the general public. Marketing encompasses research to identify customer needs, product development to meet those needs, and promotion through advertisements to create awareness among consumers. Essentially, marketing generates leads or prospects. Once the product is available in the market, it is the responsibility of sales personnel to persuade customers to make a purchase. While sales are geared towards achieving short-term goals such as converting leads into purchases and orders, marketing strategies are typically aimed at longer-term objectives. This course is tailored to enhance the skills of professionals in both areas, ensuring they are well-equipped to leverage data science for government and private sector applications.
