Abstract

This chapter is mainly crafted in order to give a business-centric view of big data analytics. The readers can find the major application domains / use cases of big data analytics and the compelling needs and reasons for wholeheartedly embracing this new paradigm. The emerging use cases include the use of real-time data such as the sensor data to detect any abnormalities in plant and machinery and batch processing of sensor data collected over a period to conduct failure analysis of plant and machinery. The author describes the short-term as well as the long-term benefits and find and nullify all kinds of doubts and misgivings on this new idea, which has been pervading and penetrating into every tangible domain. The ultimate goal is to demystify this cutting-edge technology so that its acceptance and adoption levels go up significantly in the days to unfold.
