    Big data remain a topic everyone seems to be talking about it, but still many wonder "what is big data really?"
    How is it changing the way researchers at companies, non-profits, governments, institutions, and other organizations are learning about the world around them.? Which technology provider should i trust ? What kind of data-set should be collected ? and many more similar questions we will try to answer during this post.

    Big Data came to existence as a way to handle  extremely large data sets that may be analyzed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behavior and interactions. The more the data we could collect, the more complicated managing them became, thus different ways of handling and making sense of them had to be created. But most importantly, the more the data we could collect, the more information and insight we could get.

    For Oracle, Big data describes a holistic information management strategy that includes and integrates many new types of data and data management alongside traditional data.

    So, How is Big data used in practice ? 

    Big data analytics helps organizations tie up their data together and use it to identify new Business opportunities that leads to smarter business moves more efficient operation , higher profit and customer satisfaction  .

    • Targeting Customers

    Big data is used to better understand customers and their behaviors and preferences. Companies are keen to expand their traditional data sets with social media data, browser logs as well as text analytics and sensor data to get a more complete picture of their customers.

    • Humanizing Cities and Countries .

    Big Data allows cities to optimize traffic flows based on real time traffic information as well as social media and weather data.

    • Optimize Business processes.

    Big data is also increasingly used to optimize business processes. Retailers are able to optimize their stock based on predictions generated from social media data, web search trends and weather forecasts.

    • Personal qualification and performance optimization.

    Big data is not just for companies and governments but also for all of us individually. We can now benefit from the data generated from wearable devices such as smart watches or smart bracelets. Take the Up band from Jawbone as an example: the armband collects data on our calorie consumption, activity levels, and our sleep patterns. While it gives individuals rich insights, the real value is in analyzing the collective data.

    • Financial trading.

    High-Frequency Trading (HFT) is an area where big data finds a lot of use today. Here, big data algorithms are used to make trading decisions. Today, the majority of equity trading now takes place via data algorithms that increasingly take into account signals from social media networks and news websites to make, buy and sell decisions in split seconds.

    Why Oracle Big data  ?
