What is Self-Service Data Preparation?
Self-serve data preparation allows business users with average technical skills to gather and prepare data for analysis without the help of an IT professional or a data scientist. So, why is that important? Data prep is often the forgotten step in advanced analytics but, without a self-service data preparation tool, the process can take a long time and it can result in incomplete data, data that is hard to analyze and, sometimes, a total work stoppage while IT or a data scientist attempts to sort through the issues and untangle the mess.
