What is the relationship between cloud computing and big data?

Cloud computing and big data are inseparable.

It has broad application prospects in Internet, medical care, education, energy and other industries, especially in the field of public services. Cloud computing is a breakthrough and innovation of traditional IT technology, which solves the problems faced by big data and realizes the landing of big data applications. Big data changed the world, and cloud computing changed the world. The core of cloud computing is business model, and the essence is data processing technology.

Cloud computing is a kind of distributed computing, which means that a huge data processing program is decomposed into countless small programs through the network "cloud", and then these small programs are processed and analyzed through a system composed of multiple servers, and the results are returned to users. Big data focuses on "data" and actual business for data collection, analysis and mining, focusing on information accumulation, that is, data storage capacity. Cloud computing focuses on "computing", and the IT solution of IT infrastructure, computing power, that is, data processing power, is valued.

Without the information accumulation of big data, the computing power of cloud computing is strong, and it is difficult to find a place to use it; Without the processing power of cloud computing, the information accumulation of big data will be rich, and it will only be a mirage after all.
