Data lies at the heart of business and it is the basic unit of knowledge and intelligence. There is a sequence of steps to be followed to benefit from the data in a systematic way. Data can be modelled, stored, extracted and combined with other sources of data, and mined using data mining techniques to generate new insights and new business ideas.
