Data analytics is the process of examining data sets to make decisions and extract value. The Enterprise Data Services team maintains many university data sets as “digital librarians”. Specific data access is requested of and approved by designated data stewards. A registry of administrative data is available at Registry of Ithaca campus administrative data. 

Our team can assist with data analytics by helping extract and package data sets, and by working to join data sets and prepare dimensional models to assist with reporting. We can also assist with creating Hadoop clusters at AWS and using tools such as Hive and Spark for processing large data sets without traditional data modeling.
