Description
Summary:The need for effective approaches to handle big data that is characterized by its large volume, different types, and high velocity is vital and hence has recently attracted the attention of several research groups. This is especially the case when traditional data processing techniques and capabilities proved to be insufficient in that regard. Another aspect that is equally important while processing big data is its security, as emphasized in this paper. Accordingly, we propose to process big data in two different tiers. The first tier classifies the data based on its structure and on whether security is required or not. In contrast, the second tier analyzes and processes the data based on volume, variety, and velocity factors. Simulation results demonstrated that using classification feedback from a MPLS/GMPLS core network proved to be key in reducing the data evaluation and processing time.
