Other: Big Data allows organisations to detect trends, and spot patterns that can be used for future benefit. It can help to detect which customers are likely to buy products, or help to optimise marketing campaigns by identifying which advertisement strategies have the highest return on investment. Big Data helps companies to generate valuable insights. Companies use Big Data to refine their marketing campaigns and techniques. Companies use it in machine learning projects to train machines, predictive modeling, and other advanced analytics applications. We can\'t equate big data to any specific data volume.
