What is Big Data ?
Big Data is a collection of large, complex data sets that are difficult to manage and analyze with traditional data processing tools.
It refers to extremely large and diverse collections of STRUCTURED, UNSTRUCTURED & SEMI-STRUCTURED data that continues to grow exponentially over time.
Felt like watching definition of "machine" in Aamir khan's 3 Idiots scene ? 😆
Let me put it this way, think about the size of data which is available at this point of time around the world, let's say it is 'n' Zettabytes. Do you think that this size will remains same tomorrow morning ? It will definitely increase right ? Then think about the size after a week, month & year. How to handle this data in data bases ? How to store it perfectly and how to re-use it when needed ? That's our big boy, Big Data.
Our big boy, Big Data is every where, starting from the softcopies of medical records in hospitals, increasing passengers day-by-day across all traveling forums like, road, rail, air etc., social media(just think how much data is getting generated per second across globe in all social media platforms). So, we need a forum to handle this crazy guy. That's what I will talk about in this blog from today.
