Who is generating

Who is generating Big data?

In this universe big data is generating by,

1. Humans

Humans used to collect and upload the data into the web.

The uploading data can be in the form of photos, audios, videos and mails.

Uploading videos into YouTube and Facebook.

Once if we calculate total Facebook users uploaded videos in the last month, definitely it might be big data definition.

2. Computers

Here I’m not going to explain about what is a computer but we will see how computers are generating big data.
Whatever the activities we have done on computer or hosted applications that activities or actions will be logged into a file, we can say this is log file.
Every hosted application maintains the log files to get to know the status and users activities of running application.
Example: Google, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon and weather station.

Thanks for your time.
