Most of the people thinking that Big data Analytics are a single domain. But it is not a single domain. Big Data is different and Data Analytics are different.I want to know the difference between Big data and data analytics.
Yes a lot.Big data constitutes 3 V's but analytics uses tools and techniques to extract pattern for huge data.
It depends on your point of view. Mine is:
Big data:
- get, collect and store a large, maybe unstructured data volumne
- process it fast (maybe (near) realtime), thus use parallel processing
- use data analytics (specialised for the large volume) to get interesting insights
- answer scientific or business related questions
- term is often used in communication, financial and retail industries
Data analytics:
- can be used in Big Data, but can be use outside as well (originally, it was first)
- focusses on analytical issues:
- asking the right questions
- determine the best algorithms to get answer
- term is often used in healthcare
They partially overlap in their usage.
Yes a lot.Big data constitutes 3 V's but analytics uses tools and techniques to extract pattern for huge data.
Thank you @ Jan Kinne , @ Walter Kuhn and @ Ajit kumar Roy for valuable suggestions

What is Big Data?
As implied by its name, big data refers to an immense volume of raw and unstructured data from diverse sources. Owing to its high volume and high veracity nature, it often requires more computing power to gather and analyze. The data is usually deciphered through various digital channels like mobile, internet, social media, etc. and are then used by business to make strategic decisions.
What is Data Analytics?
Data analytics seek to provide operational insights of the business. It considers historical data and then draws out inferences from them to find better solutions to complex business problems. Data analysis is conducted at a more basic level, wherein data related to the problem is specifically scanned through and parsed out with a specific goal in mind.
What is the Difference?
Think of Big Data like a library that you visit when the information to answer your question is not readily available. Whilst, data analytics is like the book that you pick up and sift through to find answers to your question. This is the basic difference between them.
Data analytics is generally more focused than big data because instead of gathering huge piles of unstructured data, data analysts have a specific goal in mind and sort through relevant data to look for ways to gain support. On the other hand, big data is a collection of a huge volume of data that requires a lot of filtering out to derive useful insights from it.
Another notable difference between the two is that Big data employs complex technological tools like parallel computing and other automation tools to handle the “big data”. Data analytics use predictive and statistical modeling with relatively simple tools.

YES. There is a lot of difference between these two terms.
Big Data is simply the data that is humongous in size. Data that is at least of the order of petabytes in generally termed as Big Data. There are a few factors that define it such as - volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value.
Data Analytics is the process of analyzing data, generally, Big Data, to gain insights that are valuable for businesses.
