Abstract

In the era of big data, organizations must strategically select and implement the right tools and technologies across five critical layers to achieve data-driven success. This article explores the significance of each layer—Data Storage, Data Processing, Data Querying, Data Access, and Management—and highlights the essential technologies and best practices for optimizing data management and analysis. By leveraging scalable storage solutions, powerful processing frameworks, efficient querying engines, intuitive data access tools, and robust management practices, organizations can unlock the true potential of their data assets. Furthermore, the article emphasizes the importance of collaboration among big data engineers, data scientists, and machine learning/AI engineers in driving the success of data solutions and fostering a culture of data-driven decision-making.
