ANALYSIS Well-suited for in-depth analysis often involving extracting patterns
using sophisticated tools and trends from the latest data

The key difference between static and streamed data lies in their characteristics and how they are handled.
All three fields - statistics, data mining, and machine learning - are concerned with extracting knowledge from
data, but they differ in their goals and approaches
