Big Data Infrastructure—A Technical Architecture Overview
Four elements compose a technical infrastructure: processing capability, storage capacity, data transport capability, and visualization capability. These are provided by a combination of hardware systems and analytical software techniques, which constitute the basic infrastructure of big data from our perspective. We will address each of these components in this chapter.
First, we view data processing as having two basic paradigms: batch and stream processing. Batch processing has high latency, whereas stream processing analyzes small amounts of data as they arrive. It has low latency, and depending on the arrival rate, volume can mount up very quickly. If you try to process ...
