Do you agree with the statement that “V” visualization is 6^th V for Big Data Analytics? If yes, provide examples to support your answer.

Answer 1

Not Agreed with the statement that “V” visualization is 6^th V for Big Data Analytics.

Variability is conisedered as the 6th V of Big Data Analytics: Variability is to what extent, and how fast, is the structure of your data changing and how often does the meaning or shape of your data change.

For example, take the newspaper subscription benefit: an internet subscription costs 50 dollars, a paper subscription 100 dollars subscription, and a paper and internet subscription 100 dollars. One option is illogical. If you offer these options to people, most people choose a paper and internet subscription, which seems more advantageous. But if one take away the illogical choice, an internet subscription for 50 dollars or a paper and internet subscription for 100 dollars, then many people will choose the internet subscription.
In this way, the composition of a questionnaire or, for example, unsubscribe buttons changes how things appear to people and thus the outcome. In purely technical terms this means: if you change variables, your model will also change.

Visualisation could be a possible use case of Big Data Analytics, but it is not responsible for that. Big data supports visualisation but from back end data requirement perspective not from the fromt end perspective. Big Data Analytics is mainly responsible for processing of data and giving data insights. To visualise one have to use various visualisation tools.
