Google glass project, once in full swing and with full acceptance by consumers, will turn out to be a biggest source of data which could be treated best by applying big data technologies.

Simply speaking, Big Data is data set having following characteristics:

• Hadoop (HDFS & MapReduce)
• HBase for non-relational database to work with data stored with Hadoop
• Hive for business analytics
