    Overview of data science tools

    The Data Science Task Categories include:

     Data Management - storage, management and retrieval of data

     Data Integration and Transformation - streamline data pipelines and automate data processing
    tasks

     Data Visualization - provide graphical representation of data and assist with communicating
    insights

     Modelling - enable Building, Deployment, Monitoring and Assessment of Data and Machine
    Learning models

    Data Science Tasks support the following:

     Code Asset Management - store & manage code, track changes and allow collaborative
    development

     Data Asset Management - organize and manage data, provide access control, and backup
    assets

     Development Environments - develop, test and deploy code

     Execution Environments - provide computational resources and run the code

    The data science ecosystem consists of many open source and commercial options, and
    include both traditional desktop applications and server-based tools, as well as cloud-based
    services that can be accessed using web-browsers and mobile interfaces.

    Data Management Tools: include Relational Databases, NoSQL Databases, and Big Data
    platforms:

     MySQL, and PostgreSQL are examples of Open Source Relational Database


    Management Systems (RDBMS), and IBM Db2 and SQL Server are examples of
    commercial RDBMSes and are also available as Cloud services.
     MongoDB and Apache Cassandra are examples of NoSQL databases.
     Apache Hadoop and Apache Spark are used for Big Data analytics.
     Data Integration and Transformation Tools: include Apache Airflow and Apache
    Kafka.

    Data Visualization Tools: include commercial offerings such as Cognos Analytics, Tableau
    and PowerBI and can be used for building dynamic and interactive dashboards.

    Code Asset Management Tools: Git is an essential code asset management tool. GitHub is a
    popular web-based platform for storing and managing source code. Its features make it an
    ideal tool for collaborative software development, including version control, issue tracking,
    and project management.
    Development Environments: Popular development environments for Data Science include
    Jupyter Notebooks and RStudio.

     Jupyter Notebooks provides an interactive environment for creating and sharing code,
    descriptive text, data visualizations, and other computational artifacts in a web-browser
    based interface.
     RStudio is an integrated development environment (IDE) designed specifically for
    working with the R programming language, which is a popular tool for statistical
    computing and data analysis.

    Languages of data science


     You should select a language to learn depending on your needs, the problems you are trying
    to solve, and whom you are solving them for.
     The popular languages are Python, R, SQL, Scala, Java, C++, and Julia.
     For data science, you can use Python's scientific computing libraries like Pandas, NumPy,
    SciPy, and Matplotlib.
     Python can also be used for Natural Language Processing (NLP) using the Natural Language
    Toolkit (NLTK).
     Python is open source, and R is free software.
     R language’s array-oriented syntax makes it easier to translate from math to code for learners
    with no or minimal programming background.
     SQL is different from other software development languages because it is a non-procedural
    language.
     SQL was designed for managing data in relational databases.
     If you learn SQL and use it with one database, you can apply your SQL knowledge with many
    other databases easily.
     Data science tools built with Java include Weka, Java-ML, Apache MLlib, and
    Deeplearning4.
     For data science, popular program built with Scala is Apache Spark which includes Shark,
    MLlib, GraphX, and Spark Streaming.
     Programs built for Data Science with JavaScript include TensorFlow.js and R-js.
     One great application of Julia for Data Science is JuliaDB.
