BIG DATA ANALYTICS

What are big data analytics?

Managing data across disparate platforms can be difficult, especially when saved in a format only specific software can read. This can cause issues for on-premises data storage systems, which can’t always keep up with the amount of generated data.

Cloud-based data lakes emerged as a solution offering a way to manage and store data across multiple platforms in a more efficient way. Users manage their data to create business intelligence reports, track analytics, and generate custom dashboards accessible from anywhere. The consolidated data can be analyzed and manipulated using AI and machine learning
