Big data technologies have become essential to the functioning of cities. Consequently, urban processes and practices are becoming highly responsive to a form of data-driven urbanism that is the key mode of production for smart cities. Such form is increasingly being directed towards tackling the challenges of sustainability in the light of the escalating urbanization trend
Smart city is a broader concept than data-driven technologies. Hangzhou, China, where Alibaba's headquarter is located, has initiated many new methods in urban management based on smart-city technologies. You may want to look for studies related to experiments in Hangzhou.
Dear Aqeel,
Really, recent research studies spot the light on resulting big data streams specially IoT data. The following paper surveys current challenges and recommended technologies, the second paper focuses on data Reduction for enabling data sharing
