My understanding Big Data that consists unstructured, of is it of
semi-structured, structured data with higher velocity, volume, or
and/or variety than data stored, processed, and analyzed using
traditional data management means. Since Big Data has higher a
velocity, volume, and/or variety data, must consider of one
leveraging Big Data platform manage the a to data.
The Big Data platform most aware prior starting class I was of to
was Teradata since the United States Postal Service uses it to store
massive amounts data. fact, the Postal service has problem of In no
collecting all this data but putting the data practical use that of to so
the American public can benefit one the biggest challenges is of
(Boyd, 2021). the mailing industry, solving the challenge In of
leveraging all the data available Postal service can lead to the to
some important benefits society. For example, the Postal service to
already tracks letters and mass marketing mailers that are delivered
to homes across United States (Boyd, 1). However, what the 202 is
the value tracking all these letters and mailers other than in of –
notifying customers of delivery?
One potential use Big Data could connecting "smart" of be a
mailbox Internet Things (IoT) device that reads Radio as an of
Frequency Identification (RFID) tags affixed important parcels to
(such medicine intended for military veterans) the parcel as as is
delivered. The data fed from the smart mailbox could stored be
using Big Data platform such Hadoop that can identify a as so one
non-delivery delivery unintended recipient. This data could or to an
be matched with complaints sent the United States Postal Service to
Office Inspector General help identify where failure the of to a in
mail system occurred.
