8. Meaning for Telecommunication • Telecommunication is an infrastructure for dealing with Big Data • Telecommunication itself is in a Big Data environments (network and service systems generate Big Data as well) • Followings should be considered: • Data itself has least value • Telecommunication is more than delivery (service/appl.) • Delivery of data also less value, more value for services and applications (involve as Big Data service/appl. provider) • Value increased: Data  Information  Knowledge • Become information based from data: need to handle “context” • Move forward to knowledge based: need to deal with “meaning” • Big Data infra provider: collection and delivery (incl. store) • Big Data service provider(???): processing (analyze and transform to information) • Dealing with Big Data is a chance to improve telecom capabilities for “Information and knowledge” • Using “context” based on Big Data and strengthen virtualized capabilities such as Cloud Computing
