But when one thinks about Big Data, the image that first comes to mind is quantitative, based on size, which makes sense since it is called \u201cBig\u201d Data. However, a survey of scientists reveals it\u2019s not just the amount of data that should be acknowledged but the different types of data collected that is causing storage nightmares.<\/p>\n

In an eWeek article written by Nathan Eddy called \u201cData Storage Demands Complicated by Data Variety\u201d, Eddy reports that data scientists are seeing that data variety is harder to handle than data volume.<\/p>\n

\u201cNearly three-quarters (71 percent) of data scientists said big data had made their analytics more difficult and data variety, not volume, was to blame, according to a survey of 111 data scientists from computational database management system designer company, Paradigm4.\u201d<\/p>\n

The complexity of the diverse types of data seemed to be the driver to why data was left on the table. This makes sense to me because it\u2019s difficult to analyze information if it\u2019s not \u201capples to apples\u201d so there will be cases where the \u201cpeach\u201d is left out of the analysis. This can be a big problem as data scientists may only be seeing part of the picture as if \u201clooking through a keyhole.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eddy states, \u201cThe report also revealed 39 percent said their job had become more stressful with the growth of big data, while nearly half of data scientists (49 percent) said they’re finding it more difficult to fit their data into relational database tables.\u201d<\/p>\n

So it looks like Big Data is innocent when compared to Data Variety. This presents a major challenge for business leaders, data scientists, and data companies to overcome. Especially considering the resources spent\u00a0to collect all of this data, one would be leaving money on the table if all of it was not utilized.<\/p>\n
