Big Data – A State-of-the-Art

Abstract

The term Big Data has an increased and tautological occurrence in scientific publications. It is of interest how and whether the data provisioning is able to support enterprises in the handling and value creation of this emerging issue. Considering the amount of growing publication and the fuzzy nature of this term, an overview is requested to avoid duplications to gain relevant findings and to identify potential research gaps. To address this issue, a general literature review is accomplished, which extrapolates and clusters discussed research fields and potential gaps. It becomes apparent that a huge part of the research is technical driven. Moreover, no identified paper addresses the research area of functional data provisioning. This initiates further investigations to discuss whether Big Data itself negate such intention or research has missed it and improvements regarding Big Data are possible.
