One good thing because of the internet is the emergence of E-commerce websites. Now you can sit at home and order whatever you want which will be delivered to your door! Want a new phone? Order it online! Want new shoes? Just type in your size and get them delivered! You can even order vegetables for dinner and get them before you begin cooking! These are the joys of E-commerce in modern times. But E-commerce websites have become so popular that millions of people visit these sites and order their products. This huge data created by all these people cannot just be analyzed by their employees anymore. They need to take help of data science.

So let’s discuss these recommendation systems in detail and also see the various other applications of data science in E-commerce.
