An advanced analytics solution that is designed for augmented analytics, must be easy enough for the average business user to achieve results without IT skills or the skills of a data scientist.

What is a Citizen Data Scientist and How Do I Create Them in My Business?
What is a Citizen Data Scientist and what is the role of a Citizen Data Scientist? It isn’t as complicated as you might think.
