Abstract

Big data and analytics are crucial for determining actions in diverse domains, including scientific research, business, and healthcare. Scalability, however, becomes a major impediment in efficiently managing and analyzing these vast databases as data volumes proliferate at an unprecedented rate. The pace at which the data is generated, the complexity and diversity of the data types involved, and the sheer volume of the accumulated data are all factors that affect scalability.

We also touched on the increasing demand for scalable solutions to manage unstructured and diverse data types, such as text, photos, video, and sensor data.

The scalability issues in big data and analytics are investigated in this study, with particular emphasis given to vital aspects such as data processing, storage, management, and real-time analysis. We had additionally examined the most recent advances in this area and suggested alternative approaches using edge computing, cloud computing, distributed systems, and artificial intelligence (AI). In this paper, we examined the scalability issues that contemporary analytics platforms and big data systems confront, as well as the methods and tools that have recently been used to solve these challenges. Additionally, this study highlights fresh strategies that provide an avenue forward for resolving big data scalability issues.
