has been used by various organizations. Meanwhile the paper also includes suggestive measures
through which businesses will be able to improve the outcome of the use of big data ( Ben 2013).
The primary objective of the research was to evaluate how the challenges of using big data were
overcome by the different organizations. Therefore it will be apt to assert that the research is
extremely beneficial for that business that is ignorant of the benefit of the use of big data in the
sector of business. Additionally the research is also helpful for them who hesitate of using big
data in business. While describing the challenges of big data using in business, the study also
discussed how the successful implication can be done successfully (Bryman and Bell 2015).
Throughout the research, several aspects were analyzed in order to reach out to the main
objective of doing the research that is to figure out the usage of big data within the corporate
world. The secondary aspects that were analyzed beside of the main question including
description of process of the data mining using big data, the application of big data by the
organizations along with the framework for big data using and most importantly the challenges
regarding the implementation of big data within the business sphere.
Usefulness of the learning process
The knowledge gained throughout the course will have considerable impact on me.

sections, preparation, pilot study, data collection, data analysis, discussion and final data
presentation. While deciding the methodology of the research, the paper focused on both the
primary as well as secondary data collection method (Vaioleti 2016). Thus I obtained the
knowledge of both the data collection method in detail. For instance, as per the guidance of the
professors, while collecting the primary data I learned how to identify authentic resources and
the correct manner to analyze as well as gather the relevant information. I also the learned the
appropriate way through which the collected will be presented. Similarly, I gained adequate
knowledge regarding secondary data collection method. To explain, several questions were set
and then asked the participants in order to fill the research gap while meeting the research
