Abstract :
The early innovators in big data infrastructure (Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, and Facebook) were large public cloud companies, but ran on their own private infrastructures. Although the public cloud companies have been developing big data infrastructure since their inception, only more recently have big data workloads been running in the public cloud. This article looks at some of the developments in big data public cloud offerings.
