4 Vs of Big Data: Velocity

Slide Content

The slide provides an overview of the concept of "Velocity," which is one of the four Vs of Big Data. The Velocity piece of the puzzle is emphasized, suggesting that the slide is part of a series discussing each of the four Vs—Volume, Velocity, Variety, and Veracity. Specifically, the slide explains that "Velocity of data processing" is the need to process data quickly due to its enormous size (TB, PB) and varied nature (both structured and unstructured). It lists examples of where fast data processing is crucial: searching Twitter posts illustrates the need for real-time data analysis; fast analysis of video streams (YouTube) shows the demand for quick processing of continuously incoming data; image recognition emphasizes the importance in fields like augmented reality and facial recognition; sound analysis (speech recognition) indicates the need for processing audio data; and text analysis (Internet search) is critical for mining valuable information from vast amounts of text data.

Graphical Look

• The slide features a large puzzle graphic on the left, with four interlocking pieces, each labeled with one of the big data Vs: Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity.
• The puzzle piece corresponding to "Velocity" is highlighted in blue and slightly larger than the others, visually denoting its focus.
• To the right of the puzzle, there is a content area with a light background.
• The header of this content area matches the blue color of the Velocity puzzle piece and contains an icon of two overlapping blue arrows, suggesting rapid movement or data transfer.
• Below the header, in black text, is a brief description of what "Velocity of data processing" entails, followed by a bulleted list of examples.
• The examples are detailed in black text with blue bullet points, maintaining consistency with the Velocity theme.
• The overall color scheme consists of blue, white, and grey tones.

The slide adopts a clean and modern look, using color highlighting to draw attention to the central topic of Velocity. The visual elements are well-arranged, offering an easy-to-follow structure that visually separates the title, core concept, and examples.
