الملخص:The rapid proliferation of digital devices has generated vast amounts of data, presenting significant challenges in collection, processing, and analysis that traditional systems struggle to overcome. This study investigates big data management approaches, explicitly focusing on technologies capable of efficiently handling real-time data at scale. Within the context of Air Operations, we propose a Hadoop-based architecture designed to support the Observe-Orient-Decide-Act (OODA) loop and enhance air traffic management. By leveraging a distributed system deployed on a cloud-based platform, we demonstrate a cost-effective solution for optimised data processing and improved decision-making capabilities. Our analysis highlights the advantages of using Hadoop's distributed file system (HDFS) for managing both structured and unstructured data generated by various sensors and devices. Additionally, we explore the integration of real-time processing technologies, such as Apache Kafka and Spark, to facilitate timely insights essential for operational effectiveness. Cloud deployment not only enhances resource accessibility but also offers flexibility and scalability, which are crucial for adapting to the dynamic nature of defence operations. We also address critical considerations for security and compliance when handling sensitive military data in cloud environments and recommend strategies to mitigate potential risks. The study concludes with recommendations for addressing future technological needs in big data management, including the incorporation of machine learning for predictive analytics and improved data visualisation tools. By implementing our proposed architecture, the military/ civil aviation can enhance its operational efficiency and decision-making processes, positioning itself to meet future challenges in an increasingly data-driven environment.
