How is big data defined and what does big data include?

Big data is undoubtedly an important concept in the field of science and technology in recent years. As more and more enterprises begin to gradually participate in the big data industry chain, the definition of big data itself is constantly enriched and developed.

If you want to define big data, you can define it from the following three aspects:

First: Big data redefines the value of data. Big data not only represents technology, but also represents an industry and a development trend. Big data technology refers to a series of related technologies around data value, including data collection, storage, security, analysis, presentation, etc. Big data industry refers to the industrial ecology based on big data technology. The industrial ecology of big data is still not perfect at present, and there is still a lot of room for development; The development trend means that big data will become an important innovation field.

Second: Big data has laid the foundation for an intelligent society. The development of artificial intelligence needs three foundations, namely data, computing power and algorithm, so big data is of great significance to the development of artificial intelligence. At present, in the field of artificial intelligence, the application effect has been significantly improved. One of the important reasons is that there is a large amount of data support at present, which will comprehensively promote the training process and verification process of the algorithm, thus enhancing the application effect of the algorithm.

Third: Big data promotes the dataization process of social resources. The development of big data makes data generate greater value, and this process will greatly promote the dataization process of social resources. After more social resources are digitized, the functional boundaries of big data will continue to expand, thus driving a series of innovations based on big data.

Finally, an important reason why big data is important is that it has opened up a new field of value, and it will gradually become an important means of production. It can even be said that big data will be an emerging energy source in the intelligent society.
