As per the reliable statistics, 7 billion searches are done on Google
per day; 390 million Tweets a day; 35% of the world’s photograph stored on
Facebook and so on and on. The two word terminology for all this data is “Big
Data”.
The drive of
sharing every small things and trying to get attention of others is increasing
rapidly, is the main reason for the requirement of Big Data technologies.
Blogging, uploading videos in YouTube etc., make a huge part of the web data.
Increasing storage capacity and falling storage costs along with vast
enhancements in data analysis have made Big Data available to a variety of new
firms and industries.
Let
us see the various sectors, where Big Data analytics have been accepted and has
been the prime reason for the change.
Improving Business and Strategies
Big Data technologies are
employed to understand customers, their behaviours and preferences. The main
objective is to create predictive models. The availability of big data has made
the telecom companies to predict their customer artifact in an efficient way.
The vendors are able to optimize
their stock based on the data generated from social media and online trends.
The delivery route optimization in business processes has been well supported
by Big Data technology. Finding a handy candidate for the respective position
among the millions in a job search site comes with the support of Big Data
technology. The optimization and better strategies that are yielding positive
results are just another example for its immense efficiency.
Better health care
While operating a complicated
case, the doctors needed experts beside them to handle it. Now, with the
evolution of big data technologies, the digitization of records of the
patients, the video recording and streaming on cloud at the same time of the
operation of a patient helps us to educate other medical practitioners and
students around the world.
By using Big Data, the
American Society of Clinical Oncology is on a move to find the best possible
treatment for cancer. All the observations of individual patients, the similar

and avoids the proxy issue.
Keyrole in R & D
The role of big data
technologies in the field of scientific discoveries and innovations is
inevitable. To maintain, analyse and process a heap and complex data and
equations would have been very time consuming and laborious process, but the
Big Data analytics made the job relatively simpler for the scientists. In the
present, if we are able to notice the buzzing discoveries in various fields. It
simply means that Big Data technologies are running as a background process.
Big data is presenting new opportunities
