 Written Answers

1) Big data is massive amounts of information, so

various public and private sector industries generate,
store, and analyze big data with an aim to improve
the services they provide. Big data represents large
amounts of data that is unmanageable using
traditional software or internet-based platforms.

2) We can also use this data for the prediction of

current trends of certain parameters and future events.

3) The major components of a healthcare system are

the health professionals (physicians or nurses), health
facilities (clinics, hospitals for delivering medicines
and other diagnosis or treatment technologies), and a
financing institution supporting the former two.

4) An unstructured data is the information that does

not adhere to a pre-defined model or organizational
framework.

5) The major challenge with big data is how to handle

large volume of information. To make it available for
scientific community, the data is required to be stored in a
file format that is easily accessible and readable for an
efficient analysis. Another major challenge is the
implementation of high-end computing tools, protocols
and high-end hardware in the clinical setting.

6) in order to derive meaningful information, so we need

to develop new strategies to organize this data and derive
meaningful information.

7) Storing large volume of data is one of the primary

challenges, but many organizations are comfortable with
data storage on their own premises. It has several
advantages like control over security and access.

8) The reason for this choice may simply be that we can

record it in a myriad of formats. Another reason for
opting unstructured format is that often the structured
input options (drop-down menus, radio buttons, and check
boxes) can fall short for capturing data of complex nature.
9) In order to tackle big data challenges and perform
smoother analytics, various companies have implemented
AI to analyze published results, textual data, and image
data to obtain meaningful outcomes.

10) Biomedical research also generates a significant

portion of big data relevant to public healthcare, this data
requires proper management and analysis in order to
derive meaningful information.
