What is Big Data Analytics?

Big data analytics refers to the application of advanced analytics techniques against very large and diverse data sets, including structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data collected from different sources. Big data analysis allows analysts, researchers, and business owners to make faster and more informed decisions using data. Advanced analytics techniques such as text analytics, data mining, predictive analytics, machine learning, statistics, and natural language processing are used by the corporate sector for extracting useful insights from unexplored data sources.

The Size of The Big Data Analytics in Semiconductor and Electronics Industry

According to a report published by Next Move Strategy Consulting, the global big data analytics in semiconductor and electronics market generated USD 22.80 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach USD 50.88 billion by 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 9.7% from 2023 to 2030.

Why is Big Data Analytics Used in Semiconductors and Electronics Industry?

The cloud-based big data analytics in semiconductor and electronics industry helps manufacturers determine the purity of a sample of base materials to design new semiconductor equipment. It also helps in manufacturing processes to increase the testing speed and reduce the number of contaminants. The integration of big data analytics helps semiconductor and electronics companies predict the results derived from huge databases.
