               14.1 Which of the following statements concerning Big Data are correct?

                     (i)   Big Data is structured and stored in consistent formats within databases.

                     (ii)   There is a heightened risk of inaccuracy with Big Data because of the
                           number of different sources used to provide it.

                     (iii)   One advantage of analysing Big Data is that the relationships identified
                           have certain organisational value.

                     (iv)  Big Data refers to the storage of data in excess of one petabyte.

                     (v)  Big Data is now streaming at such velocity that it is impossible to generate
                           meaningful real time analysis.
