This chapter is mainly based on the second module of the Big Data Framework for Agile Business (BDFAB): data science—analytics, context, and technology. Specifically, as shown in Figure 2.1, this module draws attention to data, its various types and categories, and their utilization in analytics. Setting the context of a data point and the role of hex elementization in doing so is also discussed in this chapter. Furthermore, this chapter explains the crucial importance of granularity in data and analytics, and the setting of the OGL. Data science is presented as a discipline responsible for adopting and using Big Data in an iterative and incremental manner.
Data Science: Analytics, Context, and Strategies
Understanding the Importance of Data Science
Data science is a broad-ranging term that represents the technologies and analytics of Big Data. Additionally, though, data science can be understood as a discipline of utilizing technologies and analytics to convert data into actionable knowledge. Data science includes data mining, analytics (statistics), process modeling, machine learning (ML), parallel processing, and associated aspects of data management. The application of analytics to this data is the main step in arriving at insights. Therefore, data analytics remains at the core of data science. Data science, however, is closer to the business leadership and strategic decision making than data analytics. The evolution of data to actionable knowledge requires a specialist discipline that includes the study of data, its characteristics, its context in analytics, and eventually its value in business agility. These aforementioned activities require a wide coverage of various other disciplines within the organization and collaboration with many cross-functional teams. Therefore, the work of data science is interdisciplinary.
While analysis of data can focus on using the statistical expertise and management of data on the technical aspects, data science focuses on the strategic aspect of producing business value from data. This strategic aspect of data science requires domain knowledge of the industry where it is applied. For example, domain knowledge of the banking, finance, insurance, telecom, medical, and education industries is important in developing corresponding data strategies. Consider the following examples where data science provides value by combining the science of data with the domain knowledge:

Data science thus has wide-ranging applications in business decision making. Many internal organizational disciplines and functions provide input into data science. These are the disciplines of business strategies, project management, enterprise architecture, process modeling, solutions development, and quality assurance and testing. These disciplines complement those of data science. Figure 3.1 shows the effort involved in categorizing data, finding the correlation, undertaking analytics, and presenting the insights in an easy-to-use way for the end user.
