Assertion (A) : Big data is a product of data being generated constantly and rapidly.
Reason (R) : Due to the omnipresence of persoal computing devices and smart phones, indivdiuals generate massive amount of data leading to Big data.
Answer: A
The answer is Both (A) and (R) are true.
Assertion (A) is correct: big data arises from data generated continuously and at high speed, the velocity that is one of its defining features along with volume and variety.
Reason (R) is also correct: the spread of personal computing devices and smartphones means individuals produce huge amounts of data every day through messages, photos, location data, searches and social media, and that is a major source of big data. Since both statements hold (the paper misprints 'personal' and 'individuals'), the options marking either one false are wrong.
