Software Used to Collect Big Data

One example of software developed to collect and store vast amounts of data is Hadoop. The Apache Hadoop software library is used for a variety of purposes. These include allowing multiple machines to connect to one server and a faster rate of processing large data sets. Software of this kind is particularly practical when used for large projects involving a number of teams working with the same data. It is free to download and so it can be easily utilised for large-scale software program development or small group projects. 


Another example of software developed to collect big data is Cassandra. Similar to Hadoop, Cassandra is another free, open-source database manager. It allows a number of servers to handle and process a vast amount of data shared between multiple systems. It is easily available and is very popular due to the fact it remains open-source. It was initially developed at Facebook as a tool for their application when it was first released.

Limitations of Traditional Data Analysis

  As reliable as they have been, conventional data analysis systems struggle with the amount of modern data generated in recent decades, computer storage/memory, and the complexity of some of the data. The costs that go along with some of these issues also limit traditional analysis techniques. Furthermore, big data is normally stored and processed on multiple computer systems and requires a lot of computing power on a shared network. Traditional data analysis is typically carried out on one computer system.
