“Data” makes “Data Works”

The image illustrates the workflow of data processing and utilization under the title “Data” makes “Data Works”. It breaks down the journey from raw data input on the left to human decision-making on the right into four distinct stages.

📊 Detailed Image Breakdown

Step 1: Data Attributes (Input Stage) On the far left, three essential attributes of high-quality data are shown feeding into the Big Data system:

  • High Precision: Represented by a crosshair icon, this refers to the consistency and reproducibility of data points.
  • High Accuracy: Represented by a dart hitting a bullseye, indicating the closeness of data to the true or accepted value.
  • High Resolution: Represented by a camera lens icon, meaning fine detail and sharp distinction in data points.

Step 2: Big Data (Storage & Management)

  • Depicted by a server rack icon, this stage represents the destination for the high-quality inputs.
  • It highlights the massive-scale storage and management of diverse datasets.

Step 3: Data Processing & Analysis

  • Illustrated with gears and charts, this phase involves cleaning, transforming, and modeling data to extract useful insights.
  • The neural network and robot icons below this box suggest the heavy involvement of AI, automation, and machine learning in processing the data.

Step 4: Transformation & Intelligence ➔ Data Worker (Human)

  • An arrow labeled “Transformation & Intelligence” bridges the gap between machines and humans, with a note stating it is “Converting raw data insights into strategic, human intelligence.”
  • The workflow culminates at the Data Worker (Human), represented by a person with a glowing brain. This emphasizes that human logic, critical thinking, and advanced decision-making are the ultimate goals and necessities, even with advanced data systems.

📝 Summary

This diagram illustrates the comprehensive workflow of modern data science. It shows how highly precise, accurate, and high-resolution data is collected into Big Data systems, processed and modeled using analytical and AI tools, and ultimately transformed into actionable intelligence that empowers a human Data Worker to apply critical thinking and make strategic decisions.

Operations by Metrics

1. Big Data Collection & 2. Quality Verification

  • Big Data Collection: Represented by the binary data (top-left) and the “All Data (Metrics)” block (bottom-left).
  • Data Quality Verification: The collected data then passes through the checklist icon (top flow) and the “Verification (with Resolution)” step (bottom flow). This aligns with the quality verification step, including ‘resolution/performance’.

3. Change Data Capture (CDC)

  • Verified data moves to the “Change Only” stage (central pink box).
  • If there are “No Changes,” it results in “No Actions,” illustrating the CDC (Change Data Capture) concept of processing only altered data.
  • The magnifying glass icon in the top flow also visualizes this ‘change detection’ role.

4. State/Numeric Processing & 5. Analysis, Severity Definition

  • State/Numeric Processing: Once changes are detected (after the magnifying glass), the data is split into two types:
    • State Changes (ON/OFF icon): Represents changes in ‘state values’.
    • Numeric Changes (graph icon): Represents changes in ‘numeric values’.
  • Statistical Analysis & Severity Definition:
    • These changes are fed into the “Analysis” step.
    • This stage calculates the “Count of Changes” (statistics on the number of changes) and “Numeric change Diff” (amount of numeric change).
    • The analysis result leads to “Severity Tagging” to define the ‘Severity’ level (e.g., “Critical? Major? Minor?”).

6. Notification & 7. Analysis (Retrieve)

  • Notification: Once the severity is defined, the “Notification” step (bell/email icon) is triggered to alert personnel.
  • Analysis (Retrieve):
    • The notified user then performs the “Retrieve” action.
    • This final step involves querying both the changed data (CDD results) and the original data (source, indicated by the URL in the top-right) to analyze the cause.

Summary

This workflow begins with collecting and verifying all data, then uses CDC to isolate only the changes. These changes (state or numeric) are analyzed for count and difference to assign a severity level. The process concludes with notification and a retrieval step for root cause analysis.
