This chapter proposes a new methodology for the automatic generation of domain ontologies to support big data analytics. This method ensures the recommendations of the MDA approach by transforming UML class diagrams to domain ontologies in PSM level through ODM, which is an OMG standard for ontology modeling. In this work, the authors have focused on the model-driven architecture approach as the best solution for representing and generating ontology artifacts in an intuitive way using the UML graphical syntax. The creation of domain ontologies will form the basis for application developers to target business professional context; however, the future of big data will depend on the use of technologies to model ontologies. With that said, this work supports the combination of ontologies and big data approaches as the most efficient way to store, extract, and analyze data. It is shown using the theoretical approach and concrete results obtained after applying the proposed process to an e-learning domain ontology.

The internet of things (IoT) generates large amounts of data that are sent to the cloud to be stored, processed, and analyzed to extract useful information. However, the cloud-based big data analytics approach is not completely appropriate for the analysis of IoT data sources, and presents some issues and limitations, such as inherent delay, late response, and high bandwidth occupancy. Fog computing emerges as a possible solution to address these cloud limitations by extending cloud computing capabilities at the network edge (i.e., gateways, switches), close to the IoT devices. This chapter presents a comprehensive overview of IoT big data analytics architectures, approaches, and solutions. Particularly, the fog-cloud reference architecture is proposed as the best approach for performing big data analytics in IoT ecosystems. Moreover, the benefits of the fog-cloud approach are analyzed in two IoT application case studies. Finally, fog-cloud open research challenges are described, providing some guidelines to researchers and application developers to address fog-cloud limitations.

Abstract The issues related to the analysis and management of Big Data, aspects of the security, stability and quality of the data, represent a new research, and engineering challenge. In the present paper, techniques for Big Data storage, search, analysis and management in the area of the virtual e-Learning space and the problems in front of them are considered. A numerical example for explorative analysis of data about the students from Burgas Free University is applied, using instrument for Data Mining of Orange. The analysis is a base for a system for localization of students at risk.
