What is the relationship between the healthcare industry, cloud computing and Big Data?

Portable data scanner entered our world with the Star Trek series aired in 1960. There's even an award-winning $ 10 million contest for detecting health data and producing a similar tool that can diagnose a number of diseases. As we begin to experience the era of tricorder devices, we are practically the closest in terms of developability of the smart tablets and smartphones, mobile devices like in the Star Trek series – which measure people's basic health information.

With the fast, uninterrupted and cost-effective infrastructure in communication technologies, 3G used in our mobile phones and tablets actually provides this (partially). Considering that 4G is activated in Far East countries such as South Korea and Japan, we can say that there is infrastructure for basic communication.

Sensors are needed in the medical field, integration and interpretation of information. In fact, the most complex part of the work is here. The concept of health is complex by nature. We are talking about a mechanism that has thousands of parameters and environmental factors that differentiate the evaluations. When you include the knowledge and interpretation skills of the doctors, nurses, and assistant service personnel who offer the patient or treatment service, it can be perceived how difficult the decision making process is.
