Big Data: A Survey Paper on Big Data Technologies

Abstract

Abstract

There are many Big Data technologies that have been making an impact on the new technology stacks for handling Big Data, but Apache Hadoop is one technology that has been the darling of Big Data talk. Hadoop is an open-source platform for storage and processing of diverse data types that enables data-driven enterprises to rapidly derive the complete value from all their data. A plethora of Big Data Analytics technologies and platforms have been proposed in the last years. However, in 2017, only 53% of companies are adopting such tools. It seems that the industry is not convinced about Big Data promises or maybe choosing the right technology/platform requires indepth knowledge about the capabilities of all these tools. Before deciding the right technology or platform to choose from, the organizations have to investigate the application/algorithm needs and the advantages and draw backs of each technology/platform.
