Part I

Supporting Technologies for BDMA and BDSP

Introduction to Part I

Before we discuss the big data management and analytics (BDMA) and big data security and privacy (BDSP) systems that we have designed and developed in Parts II through IV, we need to provide some of the technologies that are needed for an understanding of our systems. Part I will provide an overview of such technologies.

Part I, consisting of six chapters, will describe supporting technologies for BDMA and BDSP. Chapter 2 will describe security technologies. In particular, we will discuss various aspects of data security and privacy. In Chapter 3, we provide some background information about general data mining techniques so that the reader can have an understanding of the field. In Chapter 4, we will discuss ways of applying data mining for cyber security. In particular, we will discuss the threats to computers and networks and describe the applications of data mining to detect such threats and attacks. In Chapter 5, we will provide an overview of cloud computing and semantic web technologies. This is because several of our experimental systems discussed in Part IV utilized cloud and semantic web technologies. In Chapter 6, we will discuss how data mining technologies could be applied for insider threat detection in the cloud. First, we will discuss how semantic web technologies may be used to represent the communication between insiders and then discuss our approach to insider threat detection. Finally, in Chapter 7, we will discuss some of the BDMA technologies we have used in the experimental systems we have designed and developed.

It should be noted that the big data systems supporting technologies that we have discussed have evolved from database systems technology. Therefore, a basic knowledge of database systems technology is essential for an understanding of big data systems. An overview of database systems is discussed in Appendix B of this book.
