Reasons for the growth of data

 


4.    What are the reasons for the growth of data?



The rapidly increasing volume and complexity of data are due to growing mobile data traffic, cloud-computing traffic and burgeoning development and adoption of technologies including IoT and AI, which is driving the growth of big data analytics market. Over 2.5 quintillion bytes of data generated every day.

 Data is created by every click, swipe, share, search, and stream, proliferating the demand for big data analytics market globally.


5 reasons Big Data is growing so fast:

 

1.     We have more data now then we ever had in past and even more is expected in the future.

2.     Today we have more computing power and better and economical ways to harness it.

3.     There are a lot of innovations and developments in software for unstructured data.

4.     Analytical algorithms are advancing in several areas, most importantly with machine learning.

5.     The uptake and evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has made a substantial impact on everything from consumer electronics to military equipment.

Limitations of traditional data analysis

 7 .      What are the limitations of traditional data analysis? Traditional statistics is about analysing and summarizing data, and suited to processing lesser amounts of linear, repeatable data to find a solution. It’s very useful in environments where data, and the relationships between the data, are relatively stable. It is still by far the most commonly used methodology and continues to be good for mid to long term forecasting based on prior sales history, where a few hundred or even fewer data points may generate a reasonable forecast. The important limitations of statistics are:   Statistics laws are true on average. Statistics are aggregates of facts, so a single observation is not a statistic. Statistics deal with groups and aggregates only. Statistical methods are best applicable to quantitative data. Statistics cannot be applied to heterogeneous data. If sufficient care is not exercised in collecting, analysing and interpreting the data, statistical results might be misleadi

Traditional data analysis

 6 .      What is Traditional data analysis (descriptive and inferential)?          Traditional data is the structured data which is being majorly maintained by all types of businesses starting from very small to big organizations. In traditional database system a centralized database architecture used to store and maintain the data in a fixed format or fields in a file. For managing and accessing the data Structured Query Language (SQL) is used. 3 Characteristic of Traditional Data: ·        Traditional analytics is static.   Traditional data analytics typically relies on dashboards composed of visualizations. These dashboards are based on common business questions and are predefined well in advance.   ·        Traditional analytics answers “what.”   Traditional analytics answers a series of “what” questions and leaves the user to determine “why” through their own analyses.   ·        Traditional analytics is driven by hypotheses.   Dashboards are typically predefined based on common

Technical requirements of big data

2.       What are the technical requirements of big data? This data boom presents a massive opportunity to find new efficiencies, detect previously unseen patterns and increase levels of service to citizens, but Big Data analytics can’t exist in a vacuum. Because of the enormous quantities of data involved in these solutions, they must incorporate a robust infrastructure for storage, processing and networking, in addition to analytics software. 1.       Storage Solutions Often, organizations already possess enough storage in-house to support a Big Data initiative. (After all, the data that will be processed and analyzed via a Big Data solution is already living somewhere.) However, agencies may decide to invest in storage solutions that are optimized for Big Data. While not necessary for all Big Data deployments, flash storage is especially attractive due to its performance advantages and high availability.   2. Processing Power   Servers intended for Big Data analytics must have enoug
