More Clarity on 4 and 5 V th th
• Veracity
– SNR -Signal to Noise Ratio
– Example
• Data acquired in a controlled manner. (ex – online
customer registration) usually less noise than data
acquired via uncontrolled sources such as blog postings.
• Value
– Usefulness of data for 20 years or 20 minutes
– Example- 20 mins. delayed stock value has no value
DIKW Framework
• Data
• Information

Harnessing Big Data
17
Who’s Generating Big Data
Mobile devices
(tracking all objects all the time)
• The progress and innovation is no longer hindered by the ability to collect data
• The ability to manage, analyze, summarize, visualize, and discover knowledge
from the collected data in a timely manner and in a scalable fashion
18
Big Data Definition (1)
19
Big Data Definition (2)
• Many firms whose sole existence is based
upon their capability to generate insights
that only Big Data can deliver.
20
Big Data Analysis
• BDA enable data-driven decision making with scientific
backing so that decisions can be based on factual data
and not simply on past experience or intuition alone.
• Example 1
– The number of ice-creams sold is related to daily
temperature.
• Example 2
– Tyre sales data and road construction works.
21
Big Data Analytics
• Process of collecting, organizing, analysing large sets
of data (called Big Data) to discover patterns and
other useful information
• Four main categories
S.No. Analytics Type Value Complexity
1 Descriptive Hindsight Very Low
2 Diagnostic Insights Low
3 Predictive Insights High
4 Prescriptive Foresight Very High
1. BDA - Descriptive Analytics
• It answer questions about events that have
already occurred.
• Example 1
– What was the sales value of last 12 Months
• Example 2
– What is the monthly commission earned by each
sales agent ?
• Descriptive Analytics carried out via ad-hoc
reporting, static in nature, display historical
data (ERM, ERP, OLTP)
2. BDA - Diagnostic Analytics
• It aims to determine the cause of a
phenomenon that occurred in past using
questions that focus on the reason behind
the event.
• Example 1
– Why Q2 sales is < Q1 ?
• Example 2
– Why was there an increase in patient re-admission
rates over the past 3 months?
• Drill down, Rollup analysis
3. BDA - Predictive Analytics
• An attempt to determine the outcome of an event that might
occur in the future.
• The strength and associations form the basis of models that
are used to generate future predictions based upon past
events.
• Models used for PA have implicit dependencies on the
conditions under which the past events occurred.
• If these underlying conditions change, then the models that
make predictions need to be updated.
• Example 1 – If a customer has purchased products A and B,
what are the chances that they will also purchase C?
• Example 2 - Who is likely to cancel the product that was
ordered through e-commerce portal?
4. BDA - Prescriptive Analytics
• Prescriptive Analytics build upon the results of prediction
analytics by prescribing actions that should taken.
• Provide results that can be reasoned about because they
embed element of a situational understanding.
• This kind of analytics can be used to gain an advantage or
mitigate a risk.
• Example 1 – Among these drugs which one provides the best
results?
• Example 2 – When is the best time to trade a particular
stock?
• This approach shifts from explanatory to advisory and can
include the simulation of various scenarios
