Abstract
With the assistance of Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data analytics has evolved tremendously. The capability of dealing and processing humongous data by high performance computing systems results in great surge in applications of Big Data analytics in various fields spanning healthcare, automobile, computing, climatology, and space communications etc. The health care sector has been recently largely benefitted by this. Driven by the compounding growth as well as impact of Big Data analytics, we endeavor to map out the areas of health sector where Big Data analytics has been largely influential as well as is having the potential for ground-breaking applications. This work starts with fundamentals of IoT driven Big Data Analytics (BDA) as well as key constitutional elements which is then followed by an application overview in healthcare sector with a simultaneous emphasis on future expectations. Besides, the real time application of BDA with special reference to Covid-19 is comprehensively highlighted with recent examples. It is envisioned that the work will serve as a basic reference for IoT driven BDA in healthcare.
Highlights
The objective of Big Data analytics in the domain of healthcare is towards developing new technologies such as capturing Internet of Things (IoT) oriented devices, sensors, and mobile applications with the following outlines
IoT driven Big Data Analytics (BDA) has been widely used by health professionals to find out best remedies in the fight against Covid-19
It can be seen that BDA helps in rendering far-reaching, targeted and costeffective health care
Summary
Upon incorporation of the term Big data in healthcare, there arises a set of diverse definitions in this sector. Apart from this, in most cases, only proposed frameworks for BDA are highlighted without mentioning any real time application. Motivated by these gaps, we assay to delve upon the areas of healthcare where Big data analytics (BDA) has been largely influential as well as is having the potential for ground-breaking applications. Initiating from the basics of IoT driven Big data analytics, the applications of it in healthcare sector have been outlined. A visionary approach for IoT and BDA is proposed for optimal efficacy in healthcare sector
