What is Big Data?
Big Data is just what it sounds like: a lot of data. Such a large influx of data, in fact, that the average database software is unable to manage and analyze it. The growing market place for Big Data stems from the need to quickly gather intelligent data in its original format. Using Big Data tools, we are able to take raw data (weather, sales trends, social media, photos & videos, GPS, payment records, events…) and actually make sense of it in a secure and cost effective manner.
