The revised and expanded Data and Analytics Dictionary

The Data and Analytics Dictionary

Since its launch in August of this year, the peterjamesthomas.com Data and Analytics Dictionary has received a welcome amount of attention with various people on different social media platforms praising its usefulness, particularly as an introduction to the area. A number of people have made helpful suggestions for new entries or improvements to existing ones. I have also been rounding out the content with some more terms relating to each of Data Governance, Big Data and Data Warehousing. As a result, The Dictionary now has over 80 main entries (not including ones that simply refer the reader to another entry, such as Linear Regression, which redirects to Model).

The most recently added entries are as follows:

  1. Anomaly Detection
  2. Behavioural Analytics
  3. Complex Event Processing
  4. Data Discovery
  5. Data Ingestion
  6. Data Integration
  7. Data Migration
  8. Data Modelling
  9. Data Privacy
  10. Data Repository
  11. Data Virtualisation
  12. Deep Learning
  13. Flink
  14. Hive
  15. Information Security
  16. Metadata
  17. Multidimensional Approach
  18. Natural Language Processing (NLP)
  19. On-line Transaction Processing
  20. Operational Data Store (ODS)
  21. Pig
  22. Table
  23. Sentiment Analysis
  24. Text Analytics
  25. View

It is my intention to continue to revise this resource. Adding some more detail about Machine Learning and related areas is probably the next focus.

As ever, ideas for what to include next would be more than welcome (any suggestions used will also be acknowledged).
