Introduction
In a dynamic global economy, companies and organizations have started to rely more and more on statistics gathered from their customers insights and behavior, internal processes and business operations with the aim of finding new opportunities for growth. In order to find and determine this information, large complex sets of data should be generated and analyzed by skilled professionals. The compilation of this large collection of data is known as “Big Data”.
The last years companies and organizations are more and more using Big Data to find new methods to improve the decisions they make, to discover new opportunities and improve the overall performance. For example, big data can be harnessed to address the challenges that arise when information that is dispersed across several different systems that are not interconnected by a central system. By aggregating data across systems, big data can help improve decision-making capability. It also can augment data warehouse solutions by serving as a buffer to process new data for inclusion in the data warehouse or to remove infrequently accessed or aged data. [Tech-Faq Website, 2013]
The big challenge of collecting all this data is to find solutions in how to be converted into useable information by identifying patterns and deviations from those patterns and many companies and organizations are working on it. Developers and software providers are rising to this challenge, turning big data management into a booming industry with major players in both private industry and open source communities.

Data Analytics has significantly grown in less than two years, this quick growth has caused the company to evaluate the IT environment and its ability to support the growth and secure the data of the company. The CEO is expecting the company to grow 60% over the next two years; with the success of the company it has been determined that a change to the current IT environment and infrastructure must occur to better support the employees and the customer base.
In the past number of years data has grown exponentially. This growth in data has created problems that and a race to better monitor, monetize, and organize it. Oracle is in the forefront of helping companies from different industries better handle this growing concern with data. Oracle provides analytical platforms and an architectural platform to provide solutions to companies. Furthermore, Oracle has provided software such as Oracle Business Intelligence Suite and Oracle Exalytics that have been instrumental in organizing and analyzing the phenomenon known as Big Data.

According to Lisa Arthur, big data is as powerful as a tsunami, but it’s a deluge that can be controlled. In a positive way it provides business insights and value. Big data is data that exceeds the processing capacity of conventional database systems. It is a collection of data from traditional and digital sources inside and outside a company that represents a source of ongoing discovery and analysis. The data is too big, moves to fast, or doesn’t fit the structures of the database architecture. Daily, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data. In the last couple years we have created 90% of data we have in the world. This data comes from many places like climate information, social media sites, pictures or videos, purchase transaction records, cell phone GPS signals, and many more places. From the beginning of recorded time through 2003 users created 5 billion gigabytes of data. 2011, the same amount was created every couple days. 2013, we created that same amount every ten minutes. Some users prefer to constrain big data into digital inputs like web behavior and social network interactions. The data doesn’t exclude traditional data that is from product transaction information, financial records and interaction channels.
After understanding the possible outcomes and usages of Big Data Mining and Analytics, the study of the process is necessary to identify the real possibilities behind this techniques and how this can improve a business performance. To do this; we should comprehend the basics about data mining and the process that leads from pure data to insights.
Big Data is a term used to refer to extremely large and complex data sets that have grown beyond the ability to manage and analyse them with traditional data processing tools. However, Big Data contains a lot of valuable information which if extracted successfully, it will help a lot for business, scientific research, to predict the upcoming epidemic and even determining traffic conditions in real time. Therefore, these data must be collected, organized, storage, search, sharing in a different way than usual. In this article, invite you and learn about Big Data, methods people use to exploit it and how it helps our life.
Abstract:- This paper presents a brief idea about data mining, data mining technology, and big data. The applications regarding data mining will also be discussed briefly. The main cause of data mining is to get different ideas, how to access big data by different tools.
Attracting focus from firms in all industries, Big Data offers many benefits to those companies with the ability to harness its full potential. Firms using small data derive all of the data’s worth from its primary use, the purpose for which the data was initially collected. With Big Data, “data’s value shifts from its primary use towards its potential future uses” (Mayer-Schonberger & Cukier, 2013, p.99) thus leading to considerable increases in business efficiency. Employing Big Data analytics allows firms to increase their innovative capacity, and realize substantial cost reductions and time reductions. Moreover, Big Data techniques can be applied to support internal business decisions by identifying complex relationships within data. However, it is also important to recognize that much of Big Data’s value is “largely predicated on the public’s continued willingness to give data about themselves freely” (Brough, n.d., para. 11). As previously discussed, much of the content of Big Data is unstructured data from social media sites etc., and so if such data were to no longer be publically available due to regulation etc. the value of Big Data would be significantly diminished.
Big Data is a term used to describe the large volume of data whether structured or unstructured that inundates a given operation on a daily basis (http://www.SAS.com). Big Data consists of data sets that are so huge and complex that the customary data processing applications would not adequately handle them. Of late, the concept of Big Data has been used to describe the use of predictive analysis, user behaviour analytics and other complex data analytics techniques for the extraction value from data. The concept of Big Data can be understood through the description of the three V’s as advanced by Doug Laney, who is an industry analyst. First, Big Data can be understood in terms of Volume, whereby organizations collect large data from a variety
The key strategy implementation efforts at Amazon all surround the use of “big data”. Big data is the growth and availability of large volumes of structured/unstructured data. The use of big data has allowed decision making based upon data and analysis instead of past experience and intuition. Big data has directed organizational change in allowing Amazon to expand from an online book store to an internet giant. Revolutionary application of big data has allowed Amazon to create superior service quality while motivating employees by providing real time information to solve customer issues. Big data has strengthened Amazon’s competitive capabilities by pioneering the application of big data and charging a monthly fee to smaller businesses
In today’s society, technology has become more advanced than the human’s mind. Companies want to make sure that their information systems stay up-to-date with the rapidly growing technology. It is very important to senior-level executives and board of directions of companies that their systems can produce the right and best information for their company to result in a greater outcome and new organizational capabilities. Big data and data analytics are one of those important factors that contribute to a successful company and their updated software and information systems.
For the past couple of decades the majority of businesses have wanted to construct a data-driven organization or company. Furthermore, companies around the world are considering harnessing data as a basis of competitive advantage over other companies. As a result, business intelligence and data science use are popular in many organizations today. The increase in adoption of these data systems is in response to the heavy rise in communications abilities the world over. Which, in turn ,has increased the need for data products. Indeed, the Data Scientist profession is emerging to be one of the better-paying professions due to the urgent need of their labor. This paper is going to discuss what business intelligence is all about and explain data science that is usually confused to be similar to business intelligence. I will tackle a brief overview of data scientists and their role in organizations.
Adopting big data can also help the banking industry by saving them from lots of embarrassment resulting from increase in the number of customer which in turn requires banks to improve on their performance. As stated earlier banks are entrusted with lots of information and this information must be safe will be required to be accessed ready and in a timely fashion. The use a normal small database will not be enough to perform this operation and if banks don’t embrace the use of big data they might start to experience failure in there system.
