Abstract

The internet era creates new types of large and real-time data; much of those data are non-standard such as streaming and sensor-generated data. Advanced big data technologies enable organizations to extract insights from sophisticated data. Volume, variety and velocity represent big data challenges, which cause difficulties in capture, storage, search, sharing, analysis and visualization. Therefore, technologies like No-SQL, Hadoop and cloud computing used to extract value from large volumes and a wide variety of data to discover business needs. This article's goal is to focus on the challenges of big data and how the recent technologies can be used to address those issues, which are illustrated through real world case studies. The article also presents the lessons learned from these case studies.
