Abstract
Big Data has currently become a catchword and gained significant attention from academia and industry alike due to its innumerable applications in various fields, such as social media, marketing, public sector, healthcare, education, etc. Big Data is about dealing with enormous amount of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data that is produced in a rapid manner which is difficult to handle using conventional systems. Big Data is creating different obstacles due to its immense volume and diverse types. Several tools and technological advances (e.g., Hadoop, Hive, Pig, Spark, etc.) are being developed to analyze and tackle Big Data for adding values and making radical changes in business, education, and society. In spite of having many challenges, Big Data is a boon to science. This article makes an attempt to collect and scrupulously document contributors of Big Data, pitfalls, benefits, tools, enabling technologies, and some prevailing applications as well.
