Amazon’s Elastic MapReduce is a data analytics tool that sub-divides data into smaller chunks to simplify the organization and thus recombine the processed data into a final form that is easily extractable. After uploading your data, business users can manage and monitor the job flow progress directly from the AWS Management Console as it is fed into Amazon S3. The Hadoop framework allows its users to run as many concurrent job flows as you desire and offers easy-access tools and a reliable infrastructure environment. Once job flows are completed, the system automatically shuts down your instances so that you only pay for what you use.

Big Data is not just about the size of the data, but what you want to do with it. Big Data establishes connections and locates trends in a large set of unstructured data. Because of the varied nature and velocity of these disparate elements, it is extremely difficult to do any meaningful data mining that establishes connecting trends and schemes.
