Indexing of large quantities of data

Structured data fragmentation, analysis & movement

Distributed elaboration based on Map-Reduce paradigm

Need for substantial available space & high performance I/O

Inefficient management of unknown unstructured data

New data requires analysis re-execution

Storage of large quantities of early obsolete information

Difficult extraction and comprehension of information

Difficult or impossible management of complex algorithms and large graphs

Traditional approach for BIG DATA Analysis:

Disadvantages:
