BIG DATA. SAS, IBM, ORACLE, AND MICROSOFT TOOLS

Big Data is the processing and analysis of large amounts of data, the size of which makes it impossible to handle with conventional database and analytical tools. The proliferation of websites, image and video applications, social networks, mobile devices, apps, sensors and other modern devices capable of generating huge amounts of data have made it necessary to develop Big Data tools for their analysis. As for Big Data tools, there is a growing development. Oracle uses Exadata for these purposes, SAS uses Visual Analytics and other tools, Microsoft uses Windows Azure, IBM uses Modeler and other tools based in Hadoop. Oracle includes Hadoop in Oracle Big Data Appliance, Oracle Big Data Connectors and Oracle Loader for Hadoop. SAS incorporates Hadoop in its applications (SAS Base, SAS Data Integration, SAS Enterprise Guide, SAS Enterprise Miner, SAS Visual Analytics, SAS Visual Statistics and others). IBM works with Hadoop in its IBM InfoSphere BigInsights platform (BigInsights) and Microsoft incorporates Hadoop in the Windows Azure platform with its Big Data applications (HDInsight, Polybase and others).
