Dealing with velocity, volume, and variety
When given any tutorial on how to process data, you are usually given a quick introduction to the three Vs (velocity, volume, and variety). These are the three ways in which the complexity of data can scale. Each of them presents a singularly unique problem when dealing with data, and a lot of data that you would have to deal with can be a combination of all three. Velocity is the speed of data coming in over a period of time, volume is the amount of data, and variety is the diversity of the data being presented.
So, this section will be divided according to the three Vs, and in each subsection, there will be a solution for a common problem that may arise with them. This way, you will get to see how Python can help in dealing with such massive amounts of data. Let’s start with volume as it is the simplest and probably the first thing that comes to people’s minds when it comes to big data.
Volume
The volume of data is...
