Big Data: Key Concepts
The three Vs
Big data in general has context in three Vs:
• Sheer quantity of data
• Speed with which data is produced, processed, and digested
• Diversity of sources inside and outside
.
• Fields/Tables
/Columns
• RDBMS/Spreadsheet
• Markers/Tags to
separate elements
• XML/HTML
• No fields/attributes
• Free form text (email body,
notes, articles)
• Audio, video, and image
The different types of data that contribute to this are:

Big Data is the next generation of data warehousing, business analytics and business intelligence. It’s
poised to deliver top line revenues cost efficiently for enterprises based on new technologies (In-
database, MPP, In–memory,…), more agile analysis (runtime, on time,..) and more deep analytics ( new
data mining predictive algorithm, and optimization modeling)

• Value of Big Data is undisputable because it boost the ability of
data to drive business outcomes aligned to the enterprise. This is
exactly what clients are seeking.
• Seek fact based approaches, look and incorporate business use
cases and data usage patterns to select the right fit-for-purpose
technologies. This is done depending on needs.
• Hybrid solution architectures provide tremendous value, but
there are tradeoffs in system integration and leveraging new
technologies. Initiatives that plan to augment instead of using radical
new approaches are appearing to have more success.
• Enterprise Big Data investments based on looking at the size of
the data maybe wrong. Evaluate speed, variety, and other aspects.
• Executing at an enterprise level to maximize the value of Big
Data requires an aligned strategy. Having an innovative mindset, a
discipline of predictable delivery, and good partners are advantages
