A S. T. Nishadi

Abstract: The rapid growth of the Internet, Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing have been resulting to the explosive growth of big data in almost most of the industries and academia. However, analyzing the large volumes of data which generated from various sources requires a lot of efforts at multiple levels to extract knowledge for decision making. Cloud computing is one such powerful technology to perform massive scales of data and complex computing. The paper will introduce the concepts and definitions of big data and cloud computing, challenges of big data and possible cloud solutions to address the challenges. Further, this will suggest a conceptual model which expressing three segments of challenges including data, processing and organizational and also provide ideal cloud solutions in order to handle the proposed challenges.
