BIGDATA

“Big data usually includes data sets with sizes beyond the ability ofcommonly used software tools to capture, curate, manage, and processdata within a tolerable elapsed time. Big Data philosophy encompassesunstructured, semi-structured and structured data, however the mainfocus is on unstructured data.” source wikipedia

According to IBM: “Big Data is being generated at all times. Every digitalprocess and social media exchange produces it. Systems, sensors andmobile devices transmit it. Much of this data is coming to us in anunstructured form, making it difficult to put into structured tables withrows and columns. To extract insights from this complex data, Big Dataprojects often rely on cutting edge analytics involving data science andmachine learning. Computers running sophisticated algorithms can helpenhance the veracity of information by sifting through the noise createdby Big Data's massive volume, variety, and velocity.”
