Running Head: BIG DATA ANALYTICS BIG DATA ANALYTICS IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) SERVICE DELIVERY PRATHYUSHA PARISI 1 BIG DATA ANALYTICS I. 2 Abstract The application of big data analytics has had a significant influence on the delivery of information technology assistance. Big data analytics is being used by businesses in order to investigate and make sense of the vast volumes of data that are being generated. Businesses have been able to improve the experiences of their consumers, streamline their processes, and make decisions based on empirical evidence as a direct result of these developments. II.Intro A ) Thesis : In the process of delivering IT services, tasks such as the monitoring and maintenance of IT systems, the provision of technical assistance to end users, and the assurance that data and systems will remain secure are all included. B ) Process followed : The process of identifying and resolving issues in the field of information technology services is being sped up thanks to the application of big data analytics. Major problems can be prevented if companies spend the required amount of time and effort doing in-depth evaluations of system performance, user behavior, and a range of other indications, in addition to implementing preventative actions. III. Benefits of Big Data Analytics in IT Service Delivery A) Uses of Big data: The use of big data analytics can result in large gains in efficiency, which is one of the most important advantages brought about by these advances. By doing an analysis on a large quantity of data, companies are able to identify areas in which their operations are inefficient and then make the required adjustments to improve those areas (Han Ping Fung, 2013). B ) Future of Big data : BIG DATA ANALYTICS 3 Analytics carried out on massive amounts of data have the potential to provide businesses with a deeper understanding of their customer base. Data collected from consumers can be analyzed to uncover trends, preferences, and repeated patterns of activity. The use of big data analytics is yet another advantage that comes along with predictive analytics (Han Ping Fung, 2013). IV. Applications of Big Data Analytics in IT Service Delivery A ) Applications When it comes to the delivery of information technology services, one of the most essential applications of big data analytics is predictive maintenance. The huge amounts of data that are produced by information technology (IT) equipment are analyzed by the algorithms that are used in predictive maintenance, which enables these algorithms to accurately predict when a piece of equipment is going to break and take preventative action. B ) Performance Monitoring : Monitoring performance is yet another domain in which big data analytics might be of assistance. By doing a study of the performance data offered by IT systems, it is possible to find parts of the system that are not functioning as expected (Fung, 2014).The provision of information technology services typically involves the management of a very large number of resources, including servers, storage devices, and networks, amongst other things. By analyzing data concerning resource utilization, IT professionals are able to find places in which resources are being underutilized and may then take steps to optimize how those resources are being used. They are able to locate these areas and take action. This not only helps decrease costs, but it also ensures that the resources that are available in the form of information technology are used in a manner that is both efficient and effective. BIG DATA ANALYTICS 4 The final application for big data analytics is to improve the experience of customers when they are receiving information technology (IT) services. This helps to ensure that services related to information technology are provided in a manner that is user-friendly, easy, and convenient, as well as that they fulfill the requirements of the target audience (Kelechi et al, 2020). V. Challenges and Solutions for Implementing Big Data Analytics in IT Service Delivery A. Challenges When it comes to utilizing big data analytics in the provision of information technology services, one of the most challenging challenges that must be surmounted is data integration. B. Solutions In order to make use of big data analytics in information technology services, it is required to fix the quality of the data. There is a possibility that the data are of poor quality, which could lead to erroneous conclusions and actions that could be harmful to the business. (Kelechi et al, 2020). VI Case Studies of Big Data Analytics in IT Service Delivery A. Case Study 1 Summary Data has surpassed oil as the most valuable commodity in today's global economy, replacing it as the former top commodity. Because of the enormous amounts of data that are generated every day, businesses are always looking for innovative ways to collect insights that will assist them in becoming better at making decisions (Chai et al, 2021). B. Case Study 2 Summary In general, analytics applied to vast amounts of data can be used to increase the efficiency of IT infrastructure in a variety of different ways. By conducting a study of data relating BIG DATA ANALYTICS 5 to patterns of consumption, companies are able to find areas of their infrastructure in which they can improve performance while simultaneously reducing costs (Simonova, 2022). VII Findings The field of big data analytics is rapidly growing, and there is reason to believe that it has the potential to totally transform the way that information technology services are provided. Predictive maintenance is an interesting application of big data analytics that can be found in the realm of providing services related to information technology (Simonova, 2022). As IT service providers strive to stay one step ahead of more sophisticated cyber threats, big data analytics is becoming an increasingly crucial tool in their toolkit. The implementation of Big Data Analytics has the ability to increase the operational efficiency of IT service delivery, which is the last point to mention but certainly not the least (Simonova, 2022). VIII Summary By analyzing customer data, companies can gain a better understanding of their clients' routines, preferences, and requirements. Because of this, they are able to provide personalised treatment, which, in turn, increases the number of returning customers and their loyalty. The analysis of large amounts of data can only be successful with accurate information. A chilling impact on corporate decision-making can be caused by inaccurate results resulting from poor data quality (Simonova, 2022). BIG DATA ANALYTICS IX Future work In today's fast evolving IT landscape, the application of Big Data Analytics is increasingly becoming an essential component of the process that is used to provide IT services. With the assistance of Big Data Analytics, it is possible to do real-time monitoring of networks, servers, and applications (Simonova, 2022). The supply of information technology services connected to artificial intelligence may also benefit significantly from the utilization of big data analytics. X. Conclusion To summarize, the application of Big Data Analytics has the potential to disrupt the market for the providing of information technology services in a number of distinct ways. The uses of this technology are expanding rapidly, and companies are finding new and innovative ways to use it. Some examples of these applications include predictive maintenance and consumer insights, as well as cybersecurity and operational efficiency. 6 BIG DATA ANALYTICS 7 References Chai, W., Labbe, M., & Stedman, C.
