Abstract

Data analytics has been used in healthcare. Healthcare systems generate big data. Traditional data management techniques are often unable to manage the voluminous amounts of data produced in healthcare systems. Big Data analytics which is overcoming the limitations of traditional data analytics will bring revolutions in healthcare systems. Big data and Big Data analytics in healthcare systems are presented in this paper. Information security, privacy, and challenges of Big Data analytics in healthcare are also discussed.

Keywords

big data, big data analytics, cloud computing, fog computing, stream processing, healthcare, personalized medicine, information security, privacy
