In later chapters, the subject of textual disambiguation will be addressed. It is through
textual disambiguation that context in nonrepetitive data is achieved.


There is another way to look at the repetitive and the nonrepetitive data found in big
data. That perspective is shown in Fig. 4.2.8.


Fig. 4.2.8 Repetitive data and nonrepetitive data in big data.

In Fig. 4.2.8, it is seen that the vast majority of the volume of data found in big data is
typically repetitive data. Fig. 4.2.8 shows that nonrepetitive makes up only a fraction of
the data found in big data, when examined from the perspective of volume of data.


However, Fig. 4.2.9 shows a very different perspective.
