The exponential explosion of digital data has forced researchers to find new ways of seeing and analyzing the world. It’s about discovering new orders of magnitude for capturing, searching, sharing, storing, analyzing and presenting data. That’s how “big data” was born. Big data is a concept for storing a huge amount of information on a digital basis.
Big data refers to a very large set of data that no conventional database management or information management tool can really work. In fact, we produce about 2.5 trillion bytes of data every day.
