A Definitive Guide to Using BigQuery Efficiently

Towards Data Science

Introduction In the field of data warehousing, there’s a universal truth: managing data can be costly. Like a dragon guarding its treasure, each byte stored and each query executed demands its share of gold coins. But let me give you a magical spell to appease the dragon: burn data, not money!

The Rise of Unstructured Data

Cloudera

The International Data Corporation (IDC) estimates that by 2025 the sum of all data in the world will be in the order of 175 Zettabytes (one Zettabyte is 10^21 bytes). Most of that data will be unstructured, and only about 10% will be stored. Less will be analysed.

Apache Spark vs MapReduce: A Detailed Comparison

Knowledge Hut

Big data sets are generally huge – measuring tens of terabytes – and sometimes crossing the threshold of petabytes. It is surprising to know how much data is generated every minute. quintillion bytes of data are created every single day, and it’s only going to grow from there. As estimated by DOMO : Over 2.5

Top 14 Big Data Analytics Tools in 2024

Knowledge Hut

Data tracking is becoming more and more important as technology evolves. A global data explosion is generating almost 2.5 quintillion bytes of data today, and unless that data is organized properly, it is useless. The first is the type of data you have, which will determine the tool you need.
