A Comparative Investigation on the Use of Cloud Computing for Big Data Analytics

Abstract

Big data is working hand in hand with cloud computing. Cloud computing can enable real-time processing and analysis at a bigger scale and efficiently. This paper aims to understand the use of big data analytics in the cloud infrastructure. The discussion begins with various use cases and applications that are implemented via cloud computing in big data analytics. This research also discusses the organization's challenges during the implementation and utilization of cloud computing. Cloud deployment models, cloud services and feature are also part of the discussion. Finally, a comparison between three big cloud providers is drawn to critically review the services offered by these providers with respect to their offerings for big data analytics.
