Quantum computing is a computing paradigm that uses quantum bits (qubits) to perform calculations. Quantum computing has the potential to solve complex problems that are currently impossible for classical computers, such as factoring large numbers and simulating complex systems. Popular quantum computing platforms include IBM Q, Microsoft Quantum Development Kit, and Rigetti Forest. See details Big data refers to extremely large and complex datasets that cannot be processed by traditional data processing applications. Big data is used in many applications, such as predictive analytics, business intelligence, and scientific research. Popular big data platforms include Hadoop, Spark, and Cassandra.
