I need original work, 400 to 500 words on the following, In APA format with APA references

We live in a world of “Big data.” Big data warrants innovative processing solutions for a variety of new and existing data to provide real business benefits. However, processing large volumes or wide varieties of data remains merely a technological solution unless it is tied to business goals and objectives. Gartner, a global consulting firm, defines Big data as “high-volume, -velocity, and -variety information assets that demand cost-effective, innovative forms of information processing for enhanced insight and decision making.” (Gartner, para.1).

In 2013 alone, over a trillion gigabytes of new data was expected to be created globally. Big data presents a big challenge as well as exciting new opportunities for organizations to rise above the competition. This assignment explores these important issues.

Use the  online resources to locate two peer-reviewed journal articles from the professional business literature that analyzes a firm’s use of big data. Look for articles that also address consumer/client privacy issues associated with big data.

Complete the following:

• Critically analyze the value of the approach suggested by the articles.
• Discuss why the approach is of value for marketing and branding decision making.
• Evaluate the content of the articles as well as counterarguments providing support from the literature.
• Discuss the consumer/client privacy issues that might impact the use of Big data based on your additional research.
• Assess the value of the reading in the context of your current organization or an organization of your choice.
