Now these days 'Big Data' is being considered a vital field of research ( rather I should say it is a buzzword in today's data science research community). This question, I want to float to discuss some real challenges pertaining to Big Data handling for various purposes. So many researchers are viewing this filed merely as extended field of distributed processing by simply dividing the task into small pieces and then agglomerating the results to handle scalability issue( i.e. simple design of map and reduce procedures).

I request respondents to provide references of vital resources, which are posing challenges( theoretical as well as practical aspects) to understand Big Data environment in true sense and to understand difference between distributed environment and big data environment.
