Abstract:

The phrase "big data" has become a highly common phrase in recent times. However the phrase 'big data', while it may have been coined to indeed vaguely refer to large volumes of data, has now evolved to mean something much more specific. The phrase 'big data" actually refers to a family of technologies, platforms, software and techniques aimed at solving a variety of problems otherwise untenable through conventional or traditional solutions. The present article summarizes a traditional approach to a data management problem and presents limitations of this approach. The three 'Vs' used to characterize and define 'big data' are then elucidated upon. Finally, the article summarizes commonly used tools and technologies to solve the `big data' problem.

General note:

Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (ComBAO) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, which publishes research in observational and theoretical astronomy/astrophysics and presents recent advances in these fields. It is being published by the NAS RA V. Ambartsumian Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) in English in electronic form. The journal publishes original papers, review papers, brief reports, book reviews, special communications, observational and theoretical results in various fields of astronomy and related sciences, and some editorial notes, including anniversaries and obituaries. Under the heading “Legacy”, the renewed magazine will republish some old articles of high value in English. The heading “Guest articles” will bring to the attention of readers the articles of researchers who are not employees of BAO. ComBAO was founded in 1946 and regularly published in 1946-1990. However, the publication was interrupted because of the economic situation after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991.
