A startling revelation has been made by a group of math and computer experts that has been hard to digest. Leaving behind data consumption giants like you tube, twitter in social media and astronomy, particle physics in science the field that has emerged as a leader is genomics.  Genomics generate the most electronic bytes per year relative to other fields. It has been a challenge to capture, store and interpret the genome encoded biological information. Data generation has increased at a fast pace with the growth of biological sciences. Leading edge data generation and processing technologies are needed to tackle the present situation be it in the field of biological sciences or social media or high tech science.

The developments in data storage and analytics, combined with advancement in technology and medical research will completely change the future of healthcare and medicines. With the evolution of modern genomics along with analytics, healthcare sector will undergo a complete metamorphosis. According to a famous doctor, this change is being driven by three factors. Digital revolution- the use of mobile devices and apps through which information about actual human behavior can be obtained. Genetic revolution- which has identified large number of genetic variations which contribute to a large number of human traits and risks of various diseases. And finally Data revolution- which allows to get insights not only into individual patients but also the entire population.

The impact of big data in health care is tremendous and it has potential impact on every person as well. It helps in the advancement of disease diagnosis and treatment. Big Data is able to determine whether men need to undergo prostate cancer surgery or not, also can assess the risk of heart disease later in life, based on our health status as teenagers. Genomics, the genetic information, aims to discover the basis of heritable traits and understand how genes work to prevent disease and we may soon be able to see Web-based patient profiles that aggregate genomic data with other types of Big Data and produce "risk map" mobile apps that people can download to a smartphone. If it is about the hospital treatment, then also comes the importance of big data which requires the integration of information including admissions, records, nursing, diagnostic imaging, rehabilitation and home care. Researchers around the world are investigating ways to access, analyze and apply Big Data in healthcare. Corporations are looking for ways to use it to support their product development. Moreover, regardless of whether it's how patients are treated in the hospital or how they keep themselves healthy at home, they are learning about, interacting with and embracing Big Data .
