Big Data Sets

Big data, as the name may suggest, is a collection of data so vast that it is difficult to process using traditional techniques. While big datasets demand technology with greater faculties of analysis, they present the opportunity to gain greater insights, tackling bigger problems than humans alone have had the capacity to in the past.

The web represents a vast mine of data in a variety of forms, which grows in size and velocity with each day. With this sheer scope of data comes great potential for analysis and insights: a big dataset pulls content from diverse locations and contains systematic, partially structured or unstructured data. Big datasets call for increasingly accurate and intuitive analysis tools, which are able to keep up with the rate at which data is becoming accessible.

Using the powers of analysis associated with big data in the modern age, every interaction on the internet could be collected and analysed in its many formats, whether it be text, documents, images, videos, audio or transactions.
