‘Business Analytics’
The primary role of business analytics is to transform raw data into meaningful or
actionable insights, enabling businesses to make data-driven decisions that
improvise customer experience, optimize its processes, enhance profitability, and
minimize risks. It involves the collection, cleaning, and transformation of data from
various sources into one integrated document. Various statistical analysis and data
mining techniques are then applied to explore correlations, patterns, and trends
within the data, if any.

Descriptive
analytics
Predictive analytics uses statistical models and machine learning to forecast future outcomes based on
historical data. It builds on descriptive analytics, which summarizes past events and identifies patterns through
78%
data aggregation and visualization. By understanding these patterns and relationships, predictive analytics
applies techniques like regression and classification to project future trends or behaviors.

from descriptive analytics might show sales spikes on weekends, enabling predictive models to forecast future
sales volumes. Thus, descriptive analytics lays the foundation by revealing trends, which predictive analytics
leverages to make data-driven predictions, helping organizations make proactive decisions.
Prescriptive
Analytics
Prescriptive analytics recommends optimal
actions based on predictive insights. One
example is Google Maps which utilizes it by
analyzing real-time and historical traffic data to
simulate various routes. It then prescribes the
best path, considering distance, current traffic,
and road conditions. This ensures users receive
efficient, turn-by-turn directions, adapting
dynamically to changes for minimal travel time
and maximum efficiency. Prescriptive analytics Maps
