What are the differences between BI and data analytics?

Business Intelligence (BI) and data analytics are closely related but differ in purpose and scope. BI focuses on collecting, processing, and analyzing historical data to provide actionable insights for decision-making, often through dashboards and reports. It helps organizations track business performance. On the other hand, data analytics is more focused on examining data to identify trends, patterns, and future predictions. While BI is descriptive, data analytics can be predictive and prescriptive. A Google Data Analytics certification, for instance, equips professionals with skills in both data analysis and tools to drive insights, bridging the gap between these two domains.
