Future of Big Data Analysis Using Hadoop
Even though medical sciences are capable of diagnose the diseases like Cancer, Alzheimer’s etc, these diseases remain still incurable. Because to find the root cause of these diseases, the medical researchers need to analyze patient’s medical records, various supportive information, climatic conditions in which they lived in, across different geographical locations. And these a need a platform where a huge volume of data can be stored and analyzed. Hadoop is a powerful platform that allows us to store huge volume of consolidated data and subsequently build smart programs to learn from the data that is constantly being streamed into it (called machine learning). And Medical and life science organizations have embraced Hadoop to leverage parallel and distributed computing
