Big Data Market to Grow to 10 Billion Yuan in Next 3 Years!

As an important outreach of cloud computing, big data is arousing a frenzy. According to authoritative forecast, the big data market in China will exceed 10 billion yuan in the next 3 years. The potential is huge, since its value was less than 500 million yuan in 2012.
In the 5th China Cloud Computing Conference, Chairman of China Cloud Computing Technology and Industry Alliance Wu Jichuan pointed that big data is the foundation for cloud computing and the essential element for cloud platform. Without analysis of massive data, there exist no possibility of providing valuable information for consumers. According to analysts, equipment producers and data analyzing companies may be the first to be benefited.

Big data referes to the collection of data that cannot be grasped, managed or processed by ordinary softwares in acceptable length of time. The market involves technologies related to the storage, process, and application of massive data.
The concept of big data was not widely acknowledged until last year, though cloud computing was introduced as early as in 2008. The value of big data market in China was 450 million yuan in 2012, up 40.6 percent year on year. It is expected to reach 800 million yuan to 10.1 billion yuan during 2013 and 2016. Due to its short history, the application of big data has been proved. According to the CEOof Teradata (Greater China), the big data has already been put into use in social management, production, and services.

Chinese Version:
未来三年中国大数据市场的价值将达100亿!
作为在云计算的基础上的一种重要推广,大数据这个概念和技术正在引发一轮新的数据狂潮。根据权威机构预测,在未来的三年内,大数据在中国市场将超过100亿人民币。在过去的2012年,大数据市场在中国仅仅只是显露出了冰山一角,统计表明,整个2012年中国大数据市场仅仅为5亿人民币。毋庸置疑,大数据在中国有着极大的潜力和市场。在第五届中国云计算会议上,大会名誉主席,亦是原信息产业部部长吴基传在会上就国内云计算发展的现状作出总结。他指出大带宽、大数据是云计算服务的基础,没有无所不在的传输带宽保证就无法实现云服务,没有对海量信息的分析的大数据,就没有为所有信息消费者获取有价值的信息的可能性。大带宽、大数据是构架云平台最基本的要素。分析表明,大数据硬件厂商和数据分析公司将会是大数据的第一批受益人。


大数据,又称海量数据,指的是所涉及的资料量和数据量规模太大,而无法通过目前主流数据分析以及处理软件,在合理时间内达到撷取、管理、处理、并整理从而帮助企业作出更有效决策的目的。大数据所涵盖的市场广泛,包括了数据存储,数据处理,数据分析和数据挖掘等等一系列的子市场。大数据这个概念最早期的引用可追溯到apache org的开源项目Nutch(详细情况请查看我的博文“Hadoop之我见”)当时,大数据用来描述为更新网络搜索索引需要同时进行批量处理或分析的大量数据集。2012年中国大数据市场为4亿5千万元,而在2013到2016年,预估值为100亿元。
