So what can data do for you and your team? Data can describe our current state. This can be accomplished with dashboards or alerts, simplifying time-intensive reporting processes with new data technology. It can help detect anomalous events. If we have data on what has happened previously, we can increase efficiency by automatically detecting a new event that is unexpected. Data can also diagnose the causes of observed events and behaviors. Rather than determining correlations between small numbers of events, data science techniques help us understand complex systems with many possible causes. Finally, data can predict future events. We can use new techniques to take various causes into account and predict potential outcomes. Further, we can evaluate the probability of our prediction mathematically to clarify our level of uncertainty
