A Cloud Based Approach for Big Data Analysis: A Comprehensive Review

摘要

The quick escalation of the Internet and the digital economy has driven an exponential rise in response for data storage and analytics, and most organizations are facing difficult challenge in protecting and analyzing these increased volumes of information. Big data and cloud computing are both the fastest-moving technologies from the last decade, so there is a need to integrate the two technologies together to come up with a new defined technology which will solve the present problems in either big data alone or cloud computing alone. The main aim of this study was to visit different literature in cloud-based approach on big data analysis and find out some challenges countered on the cloud computing approach in big data analysis. It was found that there are still difficulties in using cloud based approach in big data analysis especially in terms of security and noisy data retrieved from cloud server. It was recommended that further research must be done on ensuring security on the large amount of data stored in the cloud servers.
