Big data analytics represents a significant challenge for IT organizations—and yet according to an Intel survey of 200 IT Today, every organization across the globe is faced with an managers, 84 percent are already analyzing unstructured data, unprecedented growth in data. Imagine this: The digital universe and 44 percent of those that aren’t expect to do so by 2014.5 of data was expected to expand to 2.7 zettabytes (ZB) by the end The of 2012. Then it’s predicted to double every two years, reaching potential for big data is irresistible. 8 ZB of data by 2015.1 It’s hard to conceptualize this quantity of The three Vs characterize what big data is all about, and also help information, but here’s one way: If the U.S. Library of Congress holds define the major issues that IT needs to address: 462 terabytes (TB) of digital data, then 8 ZB is equivalent to almost 18 million Libraries of Congress.2 That’s really big data. • Volume. The massive scale and growth of unstructured data outstrips traditional storage and analytical solutions. The Value of Big Data • Variety. Traditional data management processes can’t cope with What exactly is “big data,” and where is it coming from? the heterogeneity of big data—or “shadow” or “dark data,” such as access traces and Web search histories. Big data refers to huge data sets that are orders of magnitude larger (volume); more diverse, including structured, semistructured, • Velocity. Data is generated in real time, with demands for usable and unstructured data (variety); and arriving faster (velocity) than information to be served up immediately. you or your organization has had to deal with before. This flood of data is generated by connected devices—from PCs and smart phones to sensors such as RFID readers and traffic cams. Plus, it’s heterogeneous and comes in many formats, including text, document, image, video, and more. A Mountain of Data What about the 8 ZB of data projected for 2015? Nearly 15 billion connected devices—including 3 billion Internet users plus machine-to- machine connections—will contribute to this ocean of data.3 1 Kilobyte (KB) = 1,000 Bytes 1 Megabyte (MB) = 1,000,000 Bytes The real value of big data is in the insights it produces when 1 Gigabyte (GB) = 1,000,000,000 Bytes analyzed—finding patterns, deriving meaning, making decisions, 1 Terabyte (TB) = 1,000,000,000,000 Bytes and ultimately responding to the world with intelligence. 1 Petabyte (PB) = 1,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes 1 Exabyte (EB) = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes Using Big Data Analytics to Win 1 Zettabyte (ZB) = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes Big data is a disruptive force, presenting opportunities as well as 1 Yottabyte (YB) = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes challenges to IT organizations. A study by the McKinsey Global Institute Big data is measured in terabytes, petabytes, and even exabytes. Put it all in perspective with this handy conversion chart. established that data is as important to organizations as labor and capital.4 The study concluded that if organizations can effectively capture, analyze, visualize, and apply big data insights to their business goals, they can differentiate themselves from their competitors and outperform them in terms of operational efficiency and the bottom line. 3 Intel IT Center Planning Guide | Big Data What Big Data Analytics Is (and Isn’t) Big data analytics is clearly a game changer, enabling organizations to gain insights from new sources of data that haven’t been mined in the past. Here’s more about what big data analytics is … and isn’t.

Its influences are far beyond a simple technique innovation but involves all rears in the world. This chapter will first have historical review of big data; followed by discussion of characteristics of big data, i.e. from the 3V’s to up 10V’s of big data. The chapter then introduces technology stacks for an organization to build a big data application, from infrastructure/platform/ecosystem to constructional units and components.

  • Deploying Arch
    Deploying Arch 1. Introduction This document is written for webmasters. It provides simple step-by-by step instructions for the installation of Arch. Some basic familiarity with managing websites is assumed. Arch is a multi-component package: it includes Arch indexer (based on Apache Nutch) and Arch search server (based on Apache Solr) with, optionally, one or more PHP front-ends. See Arch White Paper for more details on Arch architecture. Arch also requires a number of freely available software packages: Java, a Web server, PHP and a relational database management system (RDBMS) such as MySQL. These are widely used applications, and some, or all, of these may already be installed. Note: Arch 1.7 and later versions use own Jetty server and embedded RDBMS (H2) by default. This significantly simplifies deployment. All you have to do to get it going is run Ant build script and insert your seed URLs into Arch script. For a quick start, see Arch Quick Start Guide. The document below describes Arch installation for advanced users. 2. System requirements • A Linux/Unix Operating System, or Windows Vista/7 or later with Cygwin installed; • Java 9, or later version; • Apache Ant and Ant-options packages. These are required for building Arch binaries (section 3.7); • Apache Ivy; • Optionally, for PHP front-ends, a Web server, such as Apache, with PHP; • At least 2 GB RAM. The amount of memory required will depend on the size of the web site(s) and the number of web pages to crawl at one iteration. As a very rough guide 2 GB of RAM should be enough to crawl approximately 10,000 web pages at one iteration.
