From the advent of the blockchain to the present, people have come into contact with this field successively, from the initial blockchain 1.0 to the current blockchain 2.0 or even 3.0. We have been looking forward to the application of blockchain in various fields, including big data. Many people and projects associate blockchain with big data. So, what are the similarities and differences between blockchain and big data?
Analyze the fundamental difference between blockchain and big data from some perspectives. In terms of scale, the data set described by big data is large enough and complex enough, and the information data that the blockchain can carry is limited, which is far from the “big data” standard. From the structural point of view, the blockchain is a well-defined block, chain structured data, and big data needs to deal with more unstructured data.
Finally, to ensure the security of the blockchain system, information is relatively independent, while big data focuses on the integrated analysis of information. At the same time, blockchain is the direct public presentation of data, while big data refers to the in-depth analysis and mining of data.
Although blockchain and big data have different attitudes towards data, what are the advantages if the two are combined?
