Big data refers to a scale of data that cannot be managed by conventional means. Internet-scale data has fostered the creation of new architectures and applications that are able to process this new class of data. These architectures are highly scalable and efficiently process data in parallel across a sea of servers. 3, record 1, English, - big%20data

Les flux d'informations inédits produits aujourd'hui donnent lieu à de nouveaux défis pour les entreprises. Au-delà du volume de données qui ne cesse de croître, il est nécessaire de considérer la vitesse, la variété et la qualité de l'information. Ce type d'informations est si étendu et complexe qu'il conduit à définir une nouvelle catégorie : les données massives, ou «big data». 6, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9gadonn%C3%A9es

Macrodatos es una alternativa en español a la voz inglesa "big data", que se emplea en el sector de las tecnologías de la información y de la comunicación [...] El término macrodatos es una alternativa válida pues aporta, como "big", el significado de "grande"; es una solución breve y no tiene, como ocurriría con megadatos, un posible riesgo de confusión con el término mega, muy frecuente también en los mismos ámbitos. 1, record 1, Spanish, - macrodatos
