Web Scraping
Web scraping is a core part of data engineering and data science, where you collect new data from multiple websites to build a data set for data analysis or machine learning tasks. In general, it is used to create real-time data systems.
Data Analytics
The analytics project will teach you new tools for data cleaning, processing, and visualization. You will learn to understand data and create a report with valuable insights.Â

- Data Cleaning Youtube Video Statistics: Tutorial
- World Tourism Analysis: Code Source
SQL
SQL is the most used tool for creating, managing, and streaming database systems. In most cases, you have run a few SQL scripts for analytical tasks, but integrating them into your project is hard to imagine. The list of projects will teach you how the scripts are used to create databases, store and retrieve the data, and how they are integrated with other tools.Â
- Library Management System: Code Source
- Online Retail Application Database: Code Source
- Hospital Management System: Code Source
Business Intelligence
Learn to create interactive dashboards and analytical reports using BI tools. You will learn how small modules join together to create a dashboard and what value it brings to the business.Â
- Construction Management: Code Source
- Customer Support Case: Code Source
- Wine Production in the United States: Code Source
Time Series
Learn to understand, process, and visualize time series data. You will learn to create anomaly detection systems, forecasting, and visualize multiple graphs for comparison. Time series is a whole new world within data science, so it will be quite valuable to add one of the projects to your portfolio.Â
