We have been generating data, a lot of data since human
saga; it wasn’t stored everlasting, so destroyed with age. Every human endeavor
generates data; in-fact whatever we do in our daily life that generates data.
Nevertheless, now we capture and store these data to access obvious
information, but large set of data always remains unprocessed and information
are concealed within latent sate of data.
Primitive engines were unable to store and process these
humongous data to make it capable enough for business folks’ interpretation.
Civilization moving @ speed of thought, so flow of data.
Advancement of information technology has definitely evolved countable
mechanisms for data storage- humongous data and big data. So, we talk about big
data today. Magnitude of data growing by leaps and bounds, so need of computing
quantum has been accelerated in the similar scale.
Technological paradigm shift in the information age, has
brought great apps to enable users speaking their mind and getting them excited
to enter data. Mobile interfaces boomed the online interactions - These
technologies are firing up people to generate data, big data, so accelerating
data accumulation. Obvious information changing our character and our
expectations too.
There are wide range of values in every cube of data. Today
business is all about progression in data accumulation and processing on those
data to derive information; business insight and prediction. We only need communicable information that
can solve business problems; rest are just a garbage. Analytics from only
structured data may be disruptive, so data lied in unstructured state needs to
be engineered for letting information to peep. Data scientists are classically
trained to tow the information by coining data.
Until last decade, we were browbeaten to process big data
using traditional computing techniques. Now technology advancement can manage velocity
and volume of data being generated. Parallel processing of the humongous data
is possible by means of algorithmic engines developed by present human race, so
we are fostering talents on Big Data to capitalize market need.
