10. Introduction to Big Data Big data refers to extremely large and complex datasets that traditional data processing systems cannot handle efficiently. The key characteristics of big data are: Volume: The sheer amount of data generated from various sources, such as social media, sensors, and transactions, requiring scalable storage solutions. Velocity: The speed at which data is generated, collected, and processed, necessitating real-time or near-real-time analysis. Variety: The diverse types of data, including structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data from different formats and sources. Veracity: The uncertainty and quality of data, emphasizing the need for data accuracy, consistency, and trustworthiness for reliable analysis. 10

11. Big Data Technologies Big data encompasses the vast volumes of data generated daily from various sources such as social media, sensors, transactions, and more. This data is characterized by its volume, velocity, variety, and veracity, and requires advanced technologies for storage, processing, and analysis to extract valuable insights that can drive decision-making, innovation, and efficiency in businesses. Technologies: Hadoop: Hadoop is an open-source framework that allows for the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers using simple programming models. Apache Spark:  Apache Spark is a unified analytics engine for big data processing, known for its speed and ease of use. No SQL Databases:  NoSQL databases like Cassandra and MongoDB are designed to handle unstructured data and provide high performance, scalability, and flexibility. Data Lakes:  Data lakes are centralized repositories that allow you to store all your structured and unstructured data at any scale. 11
