Data Scientist is deemed as “The sexiest job of 21st century”
Big data is a term for data sets that are so large or complex that traditional dataprocessing applications are inadequate to deal with them. Challenges include analysis, capture, data curation, search, sharing, storage, transfer, visualization, querying, updating and information privacy.
Data analytics is the science of examining raw data with the purpose of drawing conclusions about that information. Data analytics is used in many industries to allow companies and organization to make better business decisions and in the sciences to verify or disprove existing models or theories.
Data Scientists are responsible for analysis of data with a goal of discovering insights which in turn can provide a competitive advantage or address a pressing business problem. His role is to analyze data from different angles, determine what is means and then recommend ways to apply that data. They employ sophisticated analytics programs, machine learning and statistical methods to prepare data for use in predictive and prescriptive modeling. They are also responsible to communicate predictions and findings to management and IT departments through effective data visualizations and reports.
I am very glad to know that you are interested in Data Science and you have already started for it. Now being a Data Scientist is not piece of cake it requires a lot of skills and practice involved in the domain. For that one requires to be trained properly from an expert in the industry with proper experience. You need to be acquainted and have expertise in Statistics, SAS,R Programming,PYTHON,SQL, Predictive Modelling, Machine Learning Algorithms and Text Mining.
Apart from it I suggest you to do a lot of projects and assignments in order to succeed and practice what you have learnt throughout and also get it validated by someone from industry.
Also another problem which comes up is at the time of hiring because apart from campus placement it is rare that companies hiring Data Scientist hire fresher and mostly look for experienced candidates.
The traditional business analytics jobs are shrinking as data science takes over the field. There are a few foundation components you would need to start a career in data science:
After that, you need to spend a couple hundred hours on exploratory data analysis, learning statistical modeling and machine learning algorithms, as well as practicing some end-to-end projects.

In a dramatic development, Cyrus Mistry was removed from his position as chairman of Tata Sons and was replaced by Ratan Tata, from whom he had taken over the reins of the over $100 billion salt-to-software conglomerate four years ago.
The surprise announcement came after the board of directors met in Mumbai and decided to replace 48-year-old Mistry and appoint Tata, 78, interim head. The board named a five-member search committee, which includes Tata, to choose a successor to Mistry within four months.
Mistry was chosen as Tata’s successor in November 2011 and was appointed Deputy Chairman of Tata Sons, whose board he had joined in 2006. He was made chairman on the basis of his affiliation with Shapoorji Pallonji, the largest shareholder in Tata Sons.
There were no reasons given for the ouster of the man who was brought in with much fanfare, but it is believed that Tata Sons was unhappy with Mistry’s approach of shedding non-profit businesses, including the conglomerate’s steel business in Europe, and concentrating only on cash cows.
Tata Sons today announced its board has replaced Mr Cyrus P Mistry as Chairman of Tata Sons. The decision was taken at a board meeting held here today, a Tata Sons statement said.
Tata Sons is the main holding company of the group. CEOs at the operating company level of the group have not been touched in the rejig, company sources said.
The board set up a selection committee comprising Tata, TVS Group head Venu Srinivasan, Amit Chandra of Bain Capital, former diplomat Ronen Sen, and Lord Kumar Bhattacharya. All of them, except Bhattacharya, are on the board of Tata Sons.
The committee has been mandated to complete the selection process in four months, it added.
Mistry, who was chosen by a five-member panel in 2011 to succeed Tata, took over the reins of the conglomerate when the veteran industrialist retired on December 29, 2012, at the age of 75. After taking charge, Mistry had to face some challenging situations such as the decision to sell Tata Steel UK in the wake of mounting losses. The Tata group is also engaged in a legal battle with Japan's Docomo over the split of their telecom joint venture Tata Docomo.
In an interview with an in-house magazine, Mistry had recently stated that the group "should not be afraid of taking tough decisions for the right reasons, with compassion" amid "challenging situations" confronted by some of the group's businesses that would require hard and bolder decisions on pruning the portfolio.
This was in contrast to steps taken by Tata, who led the group into some notable acquisitions, starting from Tetley by Tata Tea for $450 million in 2000, to steelmaker Corus by Tata Steel in 2007, and the landmark Jaguar Land Rover in 2008 for $2.3 billion by Tata Motors.
During Tata's tenure, the group's revenues grew manifold, totalling $100.09 billion (around Rs 4,75,721 crore) in 2011-12 from a turnover of a mere Rs 10,000 crore in 1991.
Born on July 4, 1968, Mistry completed his graduation in civil engineering from London's Imperial College of Science, Technology, and Medicine and followed it up with a Masters in Management from London Business School.
Why did Tata Group replace Cyrus Mistry as the chairman?
Tata Sons Board’s decision to replace Cyrus Mistry with Ratan Tata as the Tata group chairman (interim) has taken the corporate world by a storm. If CNBC-TV sources are to be believed, the decision to replace Cyrus Mistry was ‘performance-based’. The channel said that Tata Sons decided to remove Cyrus Mistry as the chairman in the “larger interest of the group”. There are also reports that over the past 6 months, serious differences had emerged between Ratan Tata and Cyrus Mistry. According to the report, Ratan Tata, will meet all Tata Group CEOs this week. A Town Hall is likely in the coming weeks to address the group. The Selection Committee will soon meet and fast track the appointment of the new chairman. The search of Tata Group’s new chairman will not be limited to within the group, the channel said.
Various reports suggest that Tata Sons Board took the decision on “collective wisdom” to replace Cyrus Mistry. It appears that the principal shareholders felt it may be appropriate to change leadership. Some reports also suggest that a legal battle with the DoCoMo could be one of main reasons for ousting Cyrus Mistry. There is no change in CEOs at the operating level in the group.
In one of the biggest upheaval in the corporate sector, the Tata Sons Board has appointed Ratan Tata as the interim chairman of the group, replacing Cyrus Mistry. The decision was taken at a Board meeting today. Mistry has resigned from his post as chairman. The Board has constituted a Selection Committee to choose a new Chairman. The Committee comprises Ratan N. Tata, Venu Srinivasan, Amit Chandra, Ronen Sen and Lord Kumar Bhattacharyya, as per the criteria in the Articles of Association of Tata Sons. The committee has been mandated to complete the selection process in four months.
cyrus Mistry had in December 2012 become the sixth chairman of the Tata Group, replacing Ratan Tata. Mistry had been the director of the company since 2006. Mistry was earlier managing director of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group.
What could be the reason for Cyrus Mistry"s abrupt removal?
Although there were no reasons given for the change of leadership of Cyrus Mistry who had been handpicked by Ratan Tata in 2011, it isn't difficult for anyone following the group to know what can be the reasons.
1. Difference in beliefs, values, and vision.
There was a fundamental disconnect between Mistry and Tata, particularly with regard to ethos, values, vision and the direction that the group was headed in.
Detailed letters were sent to Mistry asking him to spell out his vision, five-year plan, etc, but the responses were vague and non-specific.
Things got aggravated as the chairman of Tata Sons and Tata Trusts were not the same individual. (This happened only once before when Ratan Tata was heading Tata Trusts and JRD Tata Tata Group) The former was not a Tata family member but represented the single largest shareholder while the latter was a custodian of century old legacy.
2. Mistry's decision to do away with non-profit businesses and concentrate on cash cows.
He reformed business practices in the group asking the group companies to earn the right to be part of the portfolio.His decision to sell off Tata's steel business in Europe which was bought by Ratan Tata in 2007.
3. The way NTT DoCoMo dispute was handled.
In June 2016 London court of International arbitration ordered Tata sons to pay a whopping $1.17 Billion in damages to NTT DoCoMo for breaching their agreement related to their telecom JV firm Tata Telelservices. Tata himself met the Japanese ambassador to India in Mumbai in August, requesting a diplomatic intervention.
4. Mistry’s decision to acquire assets of Welpsun Group.
Some of the Tata group insiders believed the acquisition of the assets of Welspun Group by Tata Power earlier this year was foolhardy in valuation terms. Mistry cleared this acquisition without seeking approval from either Tata or key shareholders.
5. Mistry’s decision to change the structure of the company's hospitality armfrom owning properties to one managing properties across the globe and also the unceremonious sacking of the then Indian Hotels MD Raymond Bickson.
6. Style of functioning and leadership skills
While Ratan Tata believed in empowering his team to make decisions, Mistry believed in Micromanagement. The managers, most of them leaders appointed by Ratan Tata were used to the earlier functioning of the group.
Collapse of negotiations with Vodafone who earlier were interested in buying out Tata Telelservices can be attributed to Mistry's Centralized Micro Management.
Mistry's eye for talent according to some company executives is questionable. The crucial post of the group CFO remained vacant for almost 3 years after the retirement of Ishaat Hussain.
7. Clash between the working styles of the old and new generation.
Group Executive Council (GEC) was formed by Mistry after taking over the reins from Ratan Tata with the objective of providing strategic and operational support to him.
Only a handful of its members had actual operational experience of running a business.
GEC had been under fire from Ratan Tata himself and some veterans feel that some of the recent decisions taken were questionable. Some of them perceived it as a parallel power centre.
There is a view that Mistry's move to take hard decisions may have increased the tension between the board and the chairman, which ultimately resulted in the unceremonious sacking of Mistry.
8. Conflict of Interests
Mistry didn't relinquish his Irish citizenship though as Tata Sons chairman should have.
Concerns were also voiced about conflict of interest regarding award of contracts to construction companies of the Shapoorji Pallonji group even after Mistry took over.
Automation has everyone on the edge. According to recent report by US-based research firm 'Hfs Research', India's IT services industry, which employs around 3.7 million people,will lose 6.4lakhs jobs to automation in the next five years. IT industry worldwide would see a net decrease of 9% in headcount, or about 1.4 million jobs. But that is just one part of the story. The wave of 'technological unemployement' will have a broader impact, say experts. Here are 10 other sectors that could take an automation hit.

What is the iPhone 7 going to look like? While nobody knows for sure, some leaks are starting to emerge with a common trend. There are just a few changes from the iPhone 6s body. So let’s find out what’s new.
According to this photo, it looks like the iPhone 7 is going to have the same pebble-like design with rounded edges. The back of the phone is still made out of aluminum. And you can see the fingers of the person holding this iPhone body through the Apple logo, as the shiny Apple plate is missing. But there are two main differences.
Remember the ugly antenna lines that were running across the back of the iPhone? It seems like the iPhone 7 will feature redesigned antennas. And it’s clear that the iPhone looks sleeker without these lines.
Second, there’s something different with the camera. Instead of the tiny bump on the iPhone 6s, this photo shows a bigger protruding lens. Does it mean that the iPhone 7 is going to feature a big camera update? Maybe. A wider lens could mean better low-light performance.
But rumor has it that Apple will keep the most important camera innovation for the iPhone 7 Plus. The bigger model should feature a new dual-lens camera system.
Reserving the dual-camera system to the iPhone 7 Plus would be a departure from Apple’s current strategy when it comes to the camera module, as both the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus have the same camera module. But there could be supply chain constraints pushing Apple to reserve the new module to some models only.
A dual-lens camera could let iPhone users shoot better photos in low-light conditions — it could also improve HDR performance and color fidelity. Or it would let you use an optical zoom with two different angles.
Finally, while we don’t see it on this photo, this iPhone 7 body doesn’t feature a headphone jack according to Nowhere Else. It’s still unclear why Apple would drop the headphone jack. Maybe the company has found a way to make wireless headphones suck less. Maybe Apple needs the extra space for a new feature.
Nowhere Else has been reliable in previous years when it comes to iPhone leaks. Yet, as always, you should take these rumors with a grain of salt. Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 7 at a press conference in September.

Relationships are so delicate and can break on minor issues and simple misunderstandings. Once broken, it is a die-hard task to mend the relationship and get back the same intensity of affection in the relationship. There can be visible reasons, may be a misunderstanding or communication gap, at times it can be a mistake of someone else; fragile relationships can break over any simple cause. The cause for the easy breaks in relationships is that relationships are mind products, subjective to each person.
Many relationships are not the union of best possible matches but best available pairs, or when people misconceive the partner so. Relationships start blindly by peripheral understandings and attraction; it proceeds through adjustments, forgiveness and understanding; and breakup over misunderstandings, mistakes or lack of tolerance. Getting back into the relationship, though difficult, is possible if approached the issues with the right understanding and mind to change and mend.
Every relationship being very complex in nature and function obvious issues can occur at any point of a relationship. No one can exactly predict what may happen at what time in a relationship. There are several very common issues observed in relationships. The nature and intensity of the issues depend on the mode of relationship and dept of emotional attachment.
Understand the Reasons Behind Breakup
To resolve any issue, understanding the reasons is important. Without knowing the root cause, relationship issues cannot be repaired. It can be a past reason which is now absent or a still persisting reason. Analyze each stages of the relationship and find out at which point what has gone wrong. Once the reasons of the break up are realized, the solution may be easy. Figuring out the element that lead to the breakup helps the partners to change it and get back into the relationship. Experts say that the process of figuring out the reasons of breakup can be much effective if made mutual. Forgiving is Magical Once the issues are dug out, the next step is to forgive the mistakes of both the partners. If you still hold on to the mistake committed by the partner, then it may cause another breakup in the future. Understand why the partner committed such a mistake and forgive him/her forever if you wish to take the relationship a long way further. Your forgiveness may initiate a new life and new relationship between you two. If the mistake is found to have committed by you, then be ready to change entirely to not to repeat the action and let your partner to go away forever, leaving no chance of a reunion.
Renew the Commitment Once you are back in track, renew the commitment and let your partner know the new resolutions and decisions. Once you commit to be good to your partner and also to avoid mistakes, then adhere to the commitments. Many partners get into commitments and they forget them easily. Consistency of commitments is very much required to keep the warmth of relationships ever remaining. It is rightly said that you can never change the past; but possibly the future. Realize the past mistakes and commit to not repeat them in the future. Change Yourself You may not be able to change the partner as you desire; but you can very well change yourself. Changing yourself is the better way of resolving the issues and renewing the problems. The changes may make you appear more appealing and accepted by the partner. You can also try to implement certain changes in the partner but if the person is willing, then the only way is to change yourself to comply with the partner. Changing oneself doesn't mean being submissive to the partner, but following a better way to be in a more satisfying relationship.
Communication is the Keystone
Most of the issues in relationships can be resolved with right communication with the partner. It is commonly observed that slight misunderstanding or ignorable mistakes are many a times the cause for several breakups. Approach the issues in a relationship, positively and try to make each partners understand the real situation. Communication means conveying the facts and truth and also offering support, help and forgiveness each other. Talk with a mind of acceptance. Do not try to defend or resist the arguments of the partner and accuse each other for all the mistakes. Let the communication be creative, rather critical. ALL THE BEST!! :)
Sommetimes being with someone who is more emotional than you are can be quite taxing. However, with a little care and concern you can overcome this and have a healthy relationship.
Talk it out One of the best ways to manage when your partner gets too emotional than you is by talking it out. Sometimes when your partner gets to vent out his feelings when he/she is chatting with you, it helps clear their heart.
Do not taunt your partner
Being emotional is not bad, but when you make your partner realise that he/she is too emotional, it can have adverse effects on your relationship. So, instead of taunting your partner, it is best if you try and have a conversation with him/her to make it easier for you.
Don't give in too much into your partner's feelings
Sometimes it is better to keep away from your partner's feelings without indulging too much into it so that it doesn't lead to problems later on in your relationship. Sometimes giving too much into your partner's emotions, he/she can take advantage of you.
Don't always spend time together If you go out of your way to always be with your partner, he/she may never be able to spend time with other people or by themselves and would look at you for support.
