Introduction
Big data is an
emerging paradigm applied to
datasets whose size is beyond the
ability of commonly used software
tools to capture, manage, and
process the data within a tolerable
elapsed time. Such datasets are
often from various sources (Variety)
yet unstructured such as social
media, sensors, scientific
applications, surveillance, video
and image archives, Internet texts
and documents, Internet search
indexing, medical records, business
transactions and web logs; and are
of large size (Volume) with fast
data in/out (Velocity). More
importantly, big data has to be of
high value (Value) and establish
trust in it for business decision
making (Veracity).
Cloud computing
is positioning itself as an emerging
platform for delivering information
infrastructures and resources as IT
services. Customers (enterprises or
individuals) can provision and
deploy Cloud services via
pay-as-you-go pricing models saving
huge capital investments in their
own IT infrastructures.
As estimated by IDC, by 2020, about
40% data globally would be touched
with Cloud Computing. Cloud
Computing provides strong storage,
computation and distributed
capability in support of Big Data
processing.
BDCloud (Big
Data and Cloud Computing) was
created to provide a prime
international forum for researchers,
industry practitioners and domain
experts to exchange the latest
advances in Big
Data and Cloud Computing as
well as their synergy.
BDCloud
2014 is the next event in a series
of highly successful International
Conferences, previously held as
CGC2013 (Karlsruhe,Germany),
CGC2012
(Xiangtan, China),
and CGC 2011 (Australia).
