Abstract

We have introduced several key technologies related to big data, i.e., cloud computing, IoT, data center, and Hadoop. Next, we will focus on the value chain of big data, which can be generally divided into four phases: data generation, data acquisition, data storage, and data analysis. If we take data as a raw material, data generation and data acquisition are exploitation process, data storage is a storage process, and data analysis is a production process that utilizes the raw material to create new value.
