Abstract (summary)

The era of "Big Data" is upon us. From big consumer stores mining shopper data to Google
using online search to predict incidence of the flu, companies and organizations are using troves
of information to spot trends, combat crime, and prevent disease. Online and offline actions are
being tracked, aggregated, and analyzed at dizzying rates. For example, questions like, how
many calories we consumed for breakfast, how many we burned on our last run, and how long
we spend using various applications on our computer, can be recorded and analyzed. We can lose
weight by realizing we tend to splurge on Thursdays. We can be more efficient at work by
realizing we spend time more than we thought on Facebook.

Data warehousing and data mining are related terms, as is NoSQL. With data firmly in hand and
with the ability given by Big Data Technologies to effectively store and analyze this data, we can
find answers to these questions and work to optimize every aspect of our behavior. Amazon can
know every book you ever bought or viewed by analyzing big data gathered over the years. The
NSA (National Security Agency) can know every phone number you ever dialed. Facebook can
and will analyze big data and tell you the birthdays of people that you did not know you knew.
With the advent of many digital modalities all this data has grown to BIG data and is still on the
rise.

Ultimately Big Data technologies can exist to improve decision-making and to provide greater
insights...faster when needed but with the downside of loss of data privacy.
