Integrating Advanced Data Handling Approaches in Modern Architectural Designs to Optimize Efficiency and Scalability

Abstract

This research paper delves into advanced data handling techniques in modern computing architectures, emphasizing their pivotal role in today's data-driven world. It explores the evolution from manual data management to sophisticated methods necessitated by the advent of big data, including NoSQL databases, distributed computing, and in-memory computing. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, incorporating literature reviews, surveys, interviews, and case studies to comprehensively analyze current practices, challenges, and future trends. Key findings highlight the enhanced performance and scalability offered by parallel and distributed computing frameworks like MapReduce and Apache Spark, the real-time processing capabilities of tools such as Apache Kafka and Flink, and the speed benefits of in-memory systems like Memcached and Redis. The research underscores the significant impact of machine learning and AI on data handling and emphasizes the critical need for robust data handling to ensure data integrity, security, and accessibility. The paper concludes by offering insights and recommendations for future research and practical improvements in data handling practices to meet the growing demands of modern computing environments.
