Abstract

The huge size of data that has been produced by applications that spans from social network to scientific computing is termed big data. Cloud computing as a delivery model for IT services enhances business productivity by reducing cost. It has the intention of achieving solution for managing big data such as high dimensional data sets. Thus, this chapter discusses the background of big data and cloud computing. It also discusses the various application of big data in detail. The various related work, research challenges of big data in cloud computing, and the future direction are addressed in this chapter.

2. Background

2.1 Bigdata

Neves describes the five aspects such as Volume, Variety, Velocity, Value and Veracity. Volume defines the dimensions of datasets that a big data method convention with. Variety deals with that data arises in all kinds of presentations such as from organized, numeric data in customary databases to unstructured text documents, electronic mail, video, audio, and business contacts (Wadhwani K & Wang, 2017). Velocity denotes to the period in which big data can be processed (Hadi et al, 2016). Value deals with the accurate value of information. Veracity denotes to the reliability of the data, addressing data privacy, consistency, and accessibility.

2.2 Big Data and its Applications (kiran et al 2015)

Big data are classified such as structured and unstructured.

  • 1.

    Structured Data

Words and numbers that can be certainly categorized and examined belongs to structured data. Structured data are produced by things like network sensors, smart phones, trades data, and global positioning system devices.

  • 2.

    Unstructured Data

Unstructured data comprise further multifarious data, such as consumer analyses from merchandisable websites, photos and other multimedia, and remarks on social networking sites. Separation of these data and grouping are not easy and numerical analysis are also difficult.

Some areas of big data computing are portrayed in the subsequent texts (Kune et al, 2016).

Scientific surveys: Data obtained from different sensors are studied to extract the suitable information for communal profits.

Health care: Medical care groups might figure the localities from where the infections are spreading in order to avoid more spreads (Mayer & Cukier 2013). Clinical decision support methods, specific analytics applied for patient summary, custom-made medicine, examine disease patterns, improve public health.

Governance: In transport sectors by means of real-time transportation data to calculate traffic patterns, and modernize communal transport schedules.

Stock: A private stock trade in Asia utilizes indatabase analytics to build up an exhaustive framework to detect abusive trading patterns to detect fraud in private stock trade.

Web analytics: Several websites are experiencing millions of unique visitors per day, thus creating a large range of content. Increasingly, companies want to be able to mine this data to understand limitations of their sites, improve response time, offer more targeted ads, and so on. This requires tools to perform complicated analytics on data that far exceed the memory of a single machine or even in cluster of machines.
