Big Data refers to large and complex datasets that are difficult to process using traditional methods. While Big Data can provide insights, the more data available the less likely meaningful insights can be discovered without critical thinking skills. Managers should value critical thinking over just data analysis and recognize that people assign meaning to data. For managers in India, Big Data technologies can reduce costs by efficiently storing large amounts of data and identifying cost savings, while also allowing faster, better decision making.

3. What is Big Data ?

4. Big Data is data sets that are voluminous
and complex that traditional data
processing application software are
inadequate to deal with them.

5. Informative Insights

6. Big Data = Poor Data
The more data you have, the less
probable your chance of discovering
meaning -- the "why" of things.

7. Coding is not in our control
Big data can be a transformative force,
and should be treated as such

8. Critical thinking
skills should be
given more
respect in order
to add more
value to the
analysis of data

9. Having more data in our
lives reminds us that
data doesn’t create
meaning
- We do.

10. Relevance to a
Manager in India

11. Cost Reduction
Big data technologies such as Hadoop
and cloud-based analytics bring
significant cost advantages when it
comes to storing large amounts of data
– plus they can identify more efficient
ways of doing business.

12. Manager could take
into account the
critical thinking factor
while hiring
employees.

13. Faster, Better
Decision Making

14. Manager can have a
different perception of the
data that would surely
help in his analysis.
