Databases are places where information resides. What that information looks like is up to the creators of a database, but one thing is for certain: analyzing data is one of the main points of collecting and storing data. Analysis types and techniques are plentiful, and how a data analyst chooses to analyze data really depends on a number of factors. In this course, you will explore data analysis types and techniques, beginning with the data analysis process. Next, you will review and refine business questions and determine data needs and sources. Then you will discover scoping and gap analysis, analysis types, trend analysis, and performance analysis. Finally, you will examine exploratory data analysis and link analysis. This course can be used to prepare for CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) exam.
