$(25$ Marks$)$

Two popular technologies, Big Data and Cloud Computing, have become the focus of IT professionals' worries. There is a

massive influx of information from a variety of sources every day. The sheer volume of this data makes it unmanageable by

standard data processing methods. This data is not only massive, but also dynamic and extremely varied. The term "Big

Data" refers to the practice of storing, processing, and analysing massive datasets. The focus of cloud computing, on the

other hand, is on providing the underlying infrastructure to make such operations both feasible and efficient. The potential of

Big Data is being explored by many different fields, including small and major organisations, healthcare, and education.

Analyse the significance of Big Data and Cloud Computing in IT landscape, addressing their definitions, challenges,

characteristics, potential applications in the bank and in other fields.
