Io T applications in telecom are further contributing to this data deluge. Recent advances in BDA have exposed new opportunities to get actionable insights from telecom big data. These benefits and the fast-changing BDA technology landscape make it important to investigate existing BDA applications to telecom sector. For this, we initially determine published research on BDA applications to telecom through a systematic literature review through which we filter 38 articles and categorize them in frameworks, use cases, literature reviews, white papers and experimental validations. We also discuss the benefits and challenges mentioned in these articles. We find that experiments are all proof of concepts(POC) on a severely limited BDA technology stack(as compared to the available technology stack), i.e.,we did not find any work focusing on full-fledged BDA implementation in an operational telecom environment. To facilitate these applications at research-level, we propose a state-of-the-art lambda architecture for BDA pipeline implementation(called Lambda Tel) based completely on open source BDA technologies and the standard Python language, along with relevant guidelines.We discovered only one research paper which presented a relatively-limited lambda architecture using the proprietary AWS cloud infrastructure. We believe Lambda Tel presents a clear roadmap for telecom industry practitioners to implement and enhance BDA applications in their enterprises.展开更多

In addition to this, technological advances in embedded systems, in particular Internet of Things technologies, make it possible to develop real-time applications. These technological developments are disrupting Software Engineering because the use of large amounts of real-time data requires advanced thinking in terms of software architecture. The purpose of this article is to propose an architecture unifying not only Software Engineering and Big Data activities, but also batch and streaming architectures for the exploitation of massive data. This architecture has the advantage of making possible the development of applications and digital services exploiting very large volumes of data in real time;both for management needs and for analytical purposes. This architecture was tested on COVID-19 data as part of the development of an application for real-time monitoring of the evolution of the pandemic in Côte d’Ivoire using PostgreSQL, ELasticsearch, Kafka, Kafka Connect, NiFi, Spark, Node-Red and MoleculerJS to operationalize the architecture.展开更多
