When business leaders hear the term “Big Data”, they most naturally think of the massive volumes of data created by omnichannel marketing systems, IoT (Internet of Things) -connected devices, or business applications.
Big Data refers to a large set of structured, unstructured and semi-structured data continuously generated at high speed and volume. Hence, one may say that Big Data typically is a resource with many types of data and the potential for great scale and rapid updates.
The concept of Big Data has been there for a long time. However, today most organizations understand that if they collect all the data that streams into their businesses and analyze it, they get significant value from it, adding value to their business. It is particularly true when you use techniques like artificial intelligence to drive insights from it.

What is Big Data Analytics?
Big Data Analytics is a process of analyzing Big Data and gathering new information to find patterns, correlations, market trends and customer preferences. This uncovered information helps organizations make informed business decisions that, in turn, result in better efficiency, decision making and throughput.
Data analytics technologies and techniques involve applications with elements such as predictive models, statistical algorithms and what-if analysis powered by analytics systems.
How do Big Data Analytics Work?
Big Data analytics is the collection, process, cleaning, and analysis of large datasets that help businesses operationalize their Big Data worldwide. Here is a step-wise description of how Big Data Analytics work:
-
Collect Data
Data collection is different for all businesses. Thanks to today’s technology, companies can garner both unstructured and structured data from several sources. From cloud storage to mobile applications to in-store IoT sensors, complex or diverse raw data are assigned metadata and stored in the Data Lake.
-
Process Data
Once the data is collected and secured, it is organized for getting accurate results on the analytical queries, especially when the data is unstructured or large. Accessible data is growing significantly, which makes processing a tough job for brands. Batch processing is one of the efficient options. It takes the large data blocks over time and is ideal when there is little turnaround time between the analysis and collection of the data.
-
Clean Data
Big and small data required scrubbing to enhance the data quality and offer stronger results. It is essential for the data to be formatted correctly and to get rid of any irrelevant data. Irrelevant data can mislead or provide flawed insights.
-
Analyze Data
It takes time to get all the Big Data into the usable stake. Once it is ready, advanced analytics processes can turn Big Data into valuable insights. Following are the primary data analysis methods:
- Data mining
- Predictive analytics
- Deep learning
