Abstract: Big data refers to huge chunks of data that are very large and complex for it to be processed or analyzed by traditional methods. Initially, this enormous amounts of data brought about major challenges concerning analysis, curation, searching, dissemination, storing, visualizing, running queries and updating. Itbecause of these challenges that big data was born and it answered effectively all these concerns. Big data analytics refers to using advanced data analysis methods that can extract valuable data from the huge chunks of information. Big data is often said to be accurate and has been used to make more informed decisions that haveled to increased efficiency, low risk and reduction in costs.
