6. Data Analytics Challenges:
• Data quality –The results from analytics tests are only as good as the input data. Before
performing tests, it is important to assess the quality of data and perform
validation/cleansing ifrequired.
• Data volumes – There may be significant data volumes supporting certain business
processes. Your data analytics testing infrastructure should be capable of handling
these volumes.
• Data security –It is essential that appropriate security protocols are considered
throughout the extraction and analysis to protect the confidentiality and integrity of
source data.
• Skillsets –Data analytics requires a combination of business and technical skills to
define the tests, perform the analysis and interpret the results in order to provide
meaningful insights.
