The centrality of data...
Society (government, politics, education, law enforcement...), commerce, environment, science/STEM, medicine, entertainment, communication, agriculture, manufacturing... (EVERYTHING) - DATA is an integral part!
In this course, you learned principles: of data organization, usage, applications.
The focus of the course: practical aspects of creating, storing, querying, using... data.
The vast 'tech' infrastructure: processing (cloud, GPUs...), storing (cloud...), communications (the Web, handhelds...) all are [seem] tailor-made for handling DATA!
Back to data: where do you/we go from here?
Ride the subway - back and forth, up and down town, round and round... never get off (NEVER STOP LEARNING)!!
