- How big is your data? – asked in order to get a idea of scale of the problem So you’ll see there is some quite big data being produced out there – some people producing over 200GB for a project
- We ran an online questionnaire to find out about users and uses of big data – I’ll just skim through some of the things that came out of it: We got 48 responses. this is one of the first questions we asked. Wanted to get an idea of the data collection techniques that people are using to create big data. You’ll see there’s a wide range of technologies including the ones I mentioned on an earlier slide.
- Of the 101 software packages entered into the online form a staggering 52 are unique (that is after editing for things like lower and upper case character differences). It seems the world of ‘big data’ is very fragmented.
- This is an interesting one. We asked if people had an archival policy for the data sets in question. Only 48% of respondents note that they have a policy in place Of these many noted that these policies were localised and incomplete - not formal written policy. A proper system of digital archiving should involve continuous active management of the data, putting data on a dvd and putting it in a drawer is not really a stable archival policy. A formal archival policy as we see it should ideally be based on the OAIS system – continuous active management of data to ensure its survival into the future.
- Overwhelming “yes” to this question.... Some of the reasons that were cited: monitoring over time avoiding duplication Saving time/money Of course – re-use just isn’t possible unless someone is archiving and providing access to this data
