Types of visualisations in big data analysis

Scatter plots: A graph that depicts the relationship between two numerical variables, demonstrating how they are connected to one another.

Line charts show patterns over time, such as stock prices or website traffic.

Heatmaps are charts that depict data as a color-coded grid, displaying how values fluctuate across two dimensions.

A bar chart is a graph that presents data as rectangular bars, allowing comparisons between different categories or groups to be made.

Network diagrams: A graphical depiction of the connections between nodes, such as social networks or supply chains.

Geographic maps: A map-based visual representation of data, such as population density or resource distribution.

Tree diagrams: A diagram that depicts hierarchical data relationships, such as organisational hierarchies or family trees.

Word clouds are graphical representations of the frequency of words or concepts in a dataset that may be used to detect common themes or subjects.

Sankey diagrams: A chart that depicts the movement of information or resources between several stages or processes, such as energy usage or website traffic.

Historical Development of Big Data

Image
Prior to 1980, corporations stored and analysed data on mainframe computers. Two important technologies had a critical role in the early creation of data centres as we know them today. The first was the advent of personal computers (PCs), which grew in popularity as Microsoft's Windows operating system became the global standard. Sun Microsystems' invention of the network system protocol, which allowed PC users to access network files, was the second. Following that, microcomputers began to occupy mainframe rooms as servers, and the spaces were nicknamed data centres. Several key events have affected the industry's evolution since then, most notably the advent of virtualization software and the shift to cloud computing. The timeline below demonstrates these and other major turning points in the history of big data.   In 1943, the United Kingdom developed the first data-processing computer capable of breaking Nazi codes. In 1945, ENIAC, the first electrical general-p...
