The world generated 52 times the amount of data in 2010 and 76 times the number of information sources in 2022. The ability to use this data creates enormous opportunities, and in order to make these opportunities a reality, people must use data to solve problems. Unfortunately, in the midst of a global pandemic, when people all over the world seek reliable, trustworthy information about COVID-19 (Coronavirus). Tableau plays a key role in this scenario because it is an extremely powerful tool for quickly visualizing large amounts of data. It has a simple drag-and-drop interface. Beautiful infographics are simple to create and take little time. Tableau works with a wide variety of data sources. COVID-19 (Coronavirus)analytics with Tableau will allow you to create dashboards that will assist you. Tableau is a tool that deals with big data analytics and generates output in a visualization technique, making it more understandable and presentable. Data blending, real-time reporting, and data collaboration are one of its features. Ultimately, this paper provides a clear picture of the growing COVID19 (Coronavirus) data and the tools that can assist more effectively, accurately, and efficiently. Keywords: Data Visualization, Tableau, Data Analysis, Covid-19 analysis, Covid-19 data

The implications of the digitization process among a bevy of trends are definitely many and memorable. One is the abnormal growth in data generation, gathering, and storage due to a steady increase in the number of data sources, structures, scopes, sizes, and speeds. In this chapter, the author shows some of the impactful developments brewing in the IT space, how the tremendous amount of data getting produced and processed all over the world impacts the IT and business domains, how next-generation IT infrastructures are accordingly getting refactored, remedied, and readied for the impending big data-induced challenges, how likely the move of the big data analytics discipline towards fulfilling the digital universe requirements of extracting and extrapolating actionable insights for the knowledge-parched is, and finally, the establishment and sustenance of the dreamt smarter planet.


Have you ever wondered how companies that adopt big data and analytics have generated value? Which algorithm are they using for which situation? And what was the result? These points will be discussed in this chapter in order to highlight the importance of big data analytics. To this end, and in order to give a quick introduction to what is being done in data analytics applications and to trigger the reader's interest, the author introduces some applications examples. This will allow you, in more detail, to gain more insight into the types and uses of algorithms for data analysis. So, enjoy the examples.

In this response to Guzzo, Fink, King, Tonidandel, and Landis (2015), we suggest industrial–organizational (I-O) psychologists join business analysts, data scientists, statisticians, mathematicians, and economists in creating the vanguard of expertise as we acclimate to the reality of analytics in the world of big data. We enthusiastically accept their invitation to share our perspective that extends the discussion in three key areas of the focal article—that is, big data sources, logistic and analytic challenges, and data privacy and informed consent on a global scale. In the subsequent sections, we share our thoughts on these critical elements for advancing I-O psychology's role in leveraging and adding value from big data.

The internet of things (IoT) generates large amounts of data that are sent to the cloud to be stored, processed, and analyzed to extract useful information. However, the cloud-based big data analytics approach is not completely appropriate for the analysis of IoT data sources, and presents some issues and limitations, such as inherent delay, late response, and high bandwidth occupancy. Fog computing emerges as a possible solution to address these cloud limitations by extending cloud computing capabilities at the network edge (i.e., gateways, switches), close to the IoT devices. This chapter presents a comprehensive overview of IoT big data analytics architectures, approaches, and solutions. Particularly, the fog-cloud reference architecture is proposed as the best approach for performing big data analytics in IoT ecosystems. Moreover, the benefits of the fog-cloud approach are analyzed in two IoT application case studies. Finally, fog-cloud open research challenges are described, providing some guidelines to researchers and application developers to address fog-cloud limitations.
