Data analytics is a crucial process in today’s data-driven world. It involves collecting, cleaning, transforming and analyzing data to uncover useful information, insights, trends and patterns which inform business strategy, decision-making and process optimization. Traditionally, data analytics was a manual process requiring data scientists and analysts to prepare and process data before analyzing them. This was both tedious and time-consuming. The advent of machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed data analytics by automating some parts of the process. Generative AI models, like ChatGPT, are at the forefront of this automation revolution in data analytics. These large language models can understand human prompts and generate coherent and human-like textual responses. They are trained with massive text datasets, enabling them to perform a variety of language-based tasks. Generative models, such as ChatGPT, can be fine-tuned for specific applications, including data analytics.

VMware Workstation is a software solution that provides a type-2 hypervisor, or desktop hypervisor, that runs on x64 Windows and Linux-based operating systems. It enables users to create and run virtual machines, containers, and Kubernetes clusters simultaneously on their physical devices without having to reformat or dual-boot the underlying device. There are several use cases for VMware Workstation. For IT pros, it allows them to test applications and operating system builds, as well as enable remote control of vSphere datacenter infrastructure. Developers can run multiple different operating systems or different versions of operating systems on a single device giving them the platform flexibility to test, develop, and troubleshoot applications cost-effectively. Finally, for the greater workforce, VMware Workstation can enable BYOD device initiatives allowing employees to run a full corporate environment on their device without deleting or reformatting it.
