In our modern era, data has become such a powerful resource. The digital revolution has lead to an unprecedented rate at which data is being created. Think about that amount of new data created on daily basis on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, twitter, YouTube, Medium, etc.

In addition to that, tons and tons of data is produced every day in sectors such as government, healthcare (patient health records), academia, industry, commercial system (sales data, customer purchase history, etc), sports (player statistics in leagues such as NBA, NFL, MLB, European Soccer Leagues, etc), entertainment (viewer’s history data on Netflix, etc).
