Big data analytics (BDA) is a major paradigm shift in business analytics. Big data refers primarily to datasets which are characterized by what some authors term the “three Vs” or volume, variety, and velocity. By this, it is meant that first of all, big data is big, with the total amount of data totaling in the terabytes or petabytes. Big data is also typically unstructured and highly heterogeneous, rather than fixed into a single structured format. Business organizations often do not get proper analysis required for value generation from their big data resources, largely due to misunderstanding of big data resources or poor integration of BDA tools into the decision making processes.
