  • 1.  How big is big data?

    Posted 05-14-2018 17:16

    Here are a few examples from a few Pitney Bowes clients:

    • Twitter produces over 90 million tweets per day.
    • eBay uses two data warehouses at 7.5 petabytes and 40PB as well as a 40PB Hadoop cluster for search, consumer recommendations, and merchandising.
    • Walmart handles more than 1 million customer transactions every hour, which are imported into databases estimated to contain more than 2.5 petabytes (2560 terabytes) of data – the equivalent of 167 times the information contained in all the books in the US Library of Congress.
