The role of the Data Analyst is to understand the data that an
organization needs to operate efficiently. Each time a business interacts
with a supplier or customer, information is captured by the business. This
information is required for operational, tactical and strategic purposes.
The Data Analyst summarizes his/her knowledge of the
organization's data requirements in a 'conceptual data model". The data model
diagrammatically
illustrates the "things" of interest to the business (i.e. data entities)
and facts about those thing (i.e. attributes). The model also
depicts relationships between those things and fundamental business rule.
The models are later used by
Database Administrators to design databases.
Data Analysts are available throughout the Los Angeles region.
