Which of the following is always TRUE about Big Data?

I. Due to its size or structure, Big Data cannot be efficiently analyzed using only traditional databases or methods

II. Although the variety of Big Data tends to attract the most attention, generally the volume and velocity of the data provide a more apt definition of Big Data.

II only

Both I and II

Neither I nor II

Which of the following is try about the current analytical architecture?

I Data sources are first loaded into the data warehouse where data needs to be well understood, structure, and normalize with the appropriate data type definition. This kind of centralizations enables security, backup, and failover of highly critical data.

II Once in the data warehouse, data is read by additional applications across the enterprise for BI and reporting purposes. These are high-priority operational processes getting critical data feeds from the data warehouse and repositories.
