Up the mountain path

Welcome to Back End!

Here we will consider all things about software the user never sees: the databases that holds all that data; the programming that moves the data back and forth, cleanses it, stores it, retrieves it, changes it; and the over-all manner in which massive amounts of data are governed in order to use tons of data effectively.

We start with data (tons of it), hope to turn data into information, information into knowledge, knowledge into wisdom (good use of knowledge).

Data that is relevant, coherent and useful can become information.

Information that is organized, curated, and descriptive of reality can become knowledge, which we can use to change our world.

Knowledge applied in an optimum, humane and moral manner becomes wisdom.

And that, in a nutshell, is what we are all about.  Cheers!
