Topic

Data Science and Data Products for Software Developers

Abstract

Data is the new clay. Data Science will transform software engineers. From building data driven applications to building insight driven applications. Software engineers can now transform entire businesses with smarter applications.

In this talk Sri will present practical nuances around data science - Common data segmentation tasks, modeling and scoring and how to get started and build real-time applications using machine learning and data science. We take a nuts and bolts approach, a hello world application and then a common pattern for real-time smarter applications. Talk will be infused with rich links and media resources for learning data science from a software developer's point of view.
