This article examines what is BigData, the current state of affairs, CAP Theorem, prospects for development and BigData problems. Today the volumes of information grow exponentially in order to respond faster to changes in IT field, to obtain competitive advantages, to increase production efficiency, it is necessary to obtain, process and analyze a huge amount of data. The biggest problem with the large data is the cost of processing. The equipment will have to be updated on a regular basis. So, it does not lose a minimal performance when the amount of data increases. The second problem is again related to the large amount of information that needs to be processed. BigData opens up new horizons for technology in planning production, education, healthcare and other industries. If their development continues, BigData technologies can raise information, as a factor of production, to a whole new level of quality. Information will not only be equal to labor and capital, but also it will probably become the most important resource of the modern technology.
