BIG DATA ANALYTICS
BIG DATA?? Big Data analytics – the process of analyzing and mining Big Data – can produce operational and business knowledge at an unprecedented scale and specificity. The need to analyze and leverage trend data collected by businesses is one of the main drivers for Big Data analysis tools. The technological advances in storage, processing, and analysis of Big Data include (a) the rapidly decreasing cost of storage and CPU power in recent years; (b) the flexibility and cost-effectiveness of datacenters and cloud computing for elastic computation and storage; (c) the development of new frameworks such as Hadoop, which allow users to take advantage of these distributed computing systems storing large quantities of data through flexible parallel processing. These advances have created several differences between traditional analytics and Big Data analytics 1. Storage cost has dramatically decreased in the last few years. Therefore, while traditional data warehouse operati
