“大数据”是大量的信息，可以创造奇迹。在过去的二十年里，它已经成为一个特别感兴趣的话题，因为它隐藏着巨大的潜力。各种公共和私营部门的行业生成，存储和分析大数据，旨在改善他们提供的服务。在医疗保健行业，大数据的各种来源包括医院记录、患者的医疗记录、医疗检查结果以及作为物联网一部分的设备。生物医学研究还产生了与公共医疗保健相关的大数据的重要部分。这些数据需要适当的管理和分析，以便获得有意义的信息。否则，通过分析大数据来寻求解决方案很快就变成了大海捞针。处理大数据的每一步都面临着各种挑战，只有使用高端计算解决方案进行大数据分析才能克服这些挑战。因此，为了提供改善公共卫生的相关解决方案，医疗保健提供商必须配备适当的基础设施，以系统地生成和分析大数据。对大数据的有效管理、分析和解释可以通过为现代医疗保健开辟新途径来改变游戏规则。这就是为什么包括医疗保健行业在内的各个行业都在采取积极措施，将这种潜力转化为更好的服务和财务优势。随着生物医学和医疗保健数据的强大集成，现代医疗保健组织可能会彻底改变医疗疗法和个性化医疗。
'Big data' is massive amounts of information that can work wonders. It has become a topic of special interest for the past two decades because of a great potential that is hidden in it. Various public and private sector industries generate, store, and analyze big data with an aim to improve the services they provide. In the healthcare industry, various sources for big data include hospital records, medical records of patients, results of medical examinations, and devices that are a part of internet of things. Biomedical research also generates a significant portion of big data relevant to public healthcare. This data requires proper management and analysis in order to derive meaningful information. Otherwise, seeking solution by analyzing big data quickly becomes comparable to finding a needle in the haystack. There are various challenges associated with each step of handling big data which can only be surpassed by using high-end computing solutions for big data analysis. That is why, to provide relevant solutions for improving public health, healthcare providers are required to be fully equipped with appropriate infrastructure to systematically generate and analyze big data. An efficient management, analysis, and interpretation of big data can change the game by opening new avenues for modern healthcare. That is exactly why various industries, including the healthcare industry, are taking vigorous steps to convert this potential into better services and financial advantages. With a strong integration of biomedical and healthcare data, modern healthcare organizations can possibly revolutionize the medical therapies and personalized medicine.
