Brief History of Data Engineering

Jesse Anderson

Google looked over the expanse of the growing internet and realized they’d need scalable systems. Doug Cutting took those papers and created Apache Hadoop in 2005. They were the first companies to commercialize open source big data technologies and pushed the marketing and commercialization of Hadoop.

Top 11 Programming Languages for Data Science

Knowledge Hut

Data science is the application of scientific methods, processes, algorithms, and systems to analyze and interpret data in various forms. The role requires extensive knowledge of data science languages like Python or R and tools like Hadoop, Spark, or SAS. It came out in 2009 when Google introduced it to the world.
