- 3. PART #1: BIG DATA PHENOMENON 3
- 4. Big Data = Volume + Variety + Velocity Big data is commonly characterized by three vectors: Volume = sheer amount of data Variety = polystructured nature = text, audio and video Velocity = rate at which it is generated and analyzed Source : IDC & EMC 4
- 5. Data grows exponentially By 2020, the digital universe will amount to: over 5,200GB per person on the planet In December 2012 the size of the digital universe (that is, all the digital data created, replicated and consumed in that year) was estimated to be 2 837 Exabyte (EB) - Forecasted to grow to 40,000EB by 2020 One Exabyte = 1 000 petabytes (PB) One Exabyte = 1 000 000 terabytes (TB) One Exabyte = 1 000 000 000 gigabytes (GB) Source : IDC & EMC 5
- 6. Only ½ % of Data is analyzed Not all of data generated will be actually useful In 2012, 2 837EB generated - just ½% actually analyzed. That still amounts to 14EB (or 14.185 million terabytes) Source : IDC & EMC 6
- 7. Practically all that we do creates data 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Number of @-mails sent every second : 2,9 million Video uploaded to YouTube every minute: 25 hours Data processed by Google every day: 24 petabytes Tweets per day: 50 million Products ordered on Amazon per second: 73 items 7
- 8. How big is the market? The chances are, though, that big data will take its place in the mainstream of IT activities.

- 9. SMBs generate almost 60% of added value Small business, but big revenues • SMBs are 99,8% of enterprises in Europe • 58,6% of revenues is generated by SMBs • Easier to penetrate, low entry barriers, a lot of working domains Source : EuroStat 9
- 10. SMBs can leverage Big Data 1. Big Data phenomenon is driven by accelerated growth of the unstructured data. 2. Traditional analytics means cannot cope with such volumes, variety and velocity of data. 3. Proliferation of Cloud computing and Software-as-a-Service made it possible for appearance of affordable data analytics tools for SMBs. © Sadovykh, Poisson, Papin, 2014 10
