Blending Big Data Analytics: Review on Challenges and a Recent Study

Abstract

With the collection of massive amounts of data every day, big data analytics has emerged as an important trend for many organizations. These collected data can contain important information that may be key to solving wide-ranging problems, such as cyber security, marketing, healthcare, and fraud. To analyze their large volumes of data for business analyses and decisions, large companies, such as Facebook and Google, adopt analytics. Such analyses and decisions impact existing and future technology. In this paper, we explore how big data analytics is utilized as a technique for solving problems of complex and unstructured data using such technologies as Hadoop, Spark, and MapReduce. We also discuss the data challenges introduced by big data according to the literature, including its six V's. Moreover, we investigate case studies of big data analytics on various techniques of such analytics, namely, text, voice, video, and network analytics. We conclude that big data analytics can bring positive changes in many fields, such as education, military, healthcare, politics, business, agriculture, banking, and marketing, in the future.INDEX TERMS Big data analytics, data analytics, deep learning, machine learning.

Big data analytics in healthcare: a systematic literature review

“…The application of BDA to healthcare may face various challenges (Aiello et al 2019;Amalina et al 2019). Common challenges in this area include the following:…”

“…The second approach to reviewing this body of literature has focused on summarising broad topics related to the use of BDA in healthcare. For instance, studies often attempt to summarise the sources of big data (Galetsi and Katsaliaki 2019;Kaur, Sharma, and Mittal 2018), the technologies used in the analysis of big data (Bahri et al 2018;Harerimana et al 2018), the benefits offered by BDA (Galetsi, Katsaliaki, and Kumar 2020;Kamble et al 2019), and the challenges involved in harnessing those benefits in healthcare (Amalina et al 2019;Mehta and Pandit 2018). We appreciate the valuable knowledge about the use of BDA in healthcare offered by these studies.…”

Edge-Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence in Internet of Medical Things: Architecture, Technology and Application

“…Structured storage is generally stored by MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server and other relational databases, semi-structured storage is implemented by the hadoop framework, and unstructured storage is implemented by NoSQL technol-ogy. Data analysis [39] is different from the traditional online analysis and processing, and its technology include [40], focusing on the breakthrough in visual analysis, data mining algorithm, predictive analysis, semantic engine, data quality, and data management. However, data mining is a process of extracting hidden but potentially valuable information and knowledge from a large number of incomplete, noisy, fuzzy and random data.…”

The adaptive spatio-temporal clustering method in classifying direct labor costs for the manufacturing industry

“…Offering a number of effective and matured analytics libraries for numerical computing, data analysis, visualization and machine learning [35], Python has been adopted at a tremendous rate recently in data-driven projects [36].…”
