            7.1.2   CSP: big data application provider (CSP:BDAP)

            The CSP: big data application provider (CSP:BDAP) is a sub-role of the CSP executing a set of data lifecycle
            operations to meet the requirements of data analysis and visualization, as well as the security and privacy
            requirements.  The  CSP:BDAP  utilizes  the  services  from  the  CSP:BDIP  for  big  data  services  and  provides
            analysis result to the CSC: big data service user (CSC:BDSU).
            Types of CSP:BDAP activities include:
            –       visualizing data;

            –       analysing data.
            7.1.2.1  Visualize data activity
            The visualize data activity is responsible for presenting data with multiple styles, such as statistical graphics,
            forms, diagrams, charts, reports, etc., through visualization and reporting tools and services. The big data
            service user (BDSU) can easily and quickly understand the meaning of data through data visualization. Direct
            interaction between reporting tools and CSC operational systems is also supported.
            Types of big data visualize activities include:
            –       business intelligence;
            –       data reporting;
            –       data exploration.

            7.1.2.2  Analyse data activity
            The analyse data activity is a process to extract and discover useful information or valuable insights from big
            data.
            Types of big data analyse activities include:

            –       statistical analysis;
            –       predictive analysis;
            –       content analysis.
            7.1.3   CSP:big data infrastructure provider (CSP:BDIP)

            CSP:big  data  infrastructure  provider  (CSP:BDIP)  is  the  sub-role  of  the  CSP  providing  cloud  computing
            resources (such as system hardware, a network, storage and computing platforms) in order to execute big
            data processing, while protecting the privacy, retention policy and integrity of data.

            Types of CSP:BDIP activities include:
            –       performing data collection;
            –       performing data storage;
            –       providing data pre-processing;
            –       providing data integration;

            –       managing data protection;
            –       managing data provenance.
            7.1.3.1  Perform data collection activity
            The  perform  data  collection  activity  is  responsible  for  gathering  and  searching  of  data.  Data  in  a  cloud
            computing  environment  that  could  be  transported  through  Internet,  such  as  web,  video,  audio,  radio
            frequency identification (RFID), sensor and social network data and data obtained in other ways can be
            categorized into three types as follows:
            –       structured data, such as record data persistent in databases;
            –       semi-structured data, such as data stored in XML, HTML and other format documents;
            –       unstructured mass data, such as log files, video and audio data.
