Data Exploration Evolution : Understanding It's Past, Today and Tomorrow
Data Exploration: From Origins to Future Trends
Have you ever wondered how the vast universe of data we navigate daily came to be so accessible?
Data exploration has evolved from simple spreadsheets to complex algorithms that predict the future.
I’ll take you through a journey from its humble beginnings, through the digital revolution, to the cutting-edge innovations shaping tomorrow.
Data Exploration in Past
In the Past, data exploration was primarily manual and time-consuming. Data scientists had to rely on basic tools like Excel.
Or more traditional statistical software (e.g., SAS or SPSS) for analyzing datasets.
The process was less about interactive exploration and more about running predefined analyses to test specific hypotheses.
Data quality and size were often limiting factors, as the tools available struggled with large datasets. Visualization was also basic, using simple charts that offered limited insights.
Let's see how it becomes easier and easier now, and then let's predict how it will be in the future!
