Big Data is here now, not the next big thing. Humans and machines create 2.5 exabytes of data every day, with individuals creating around 70% of that information from sources like mobile phones, web browsing, and debit card transactions. Sensors in various systems also generate large amounts of data that needs to be stored and processed. While size is important, speed is also key for time-sensitive or real-time applications. The amount of Big Data will grow 50x in the next 10 years.
