## Summary

In their chapter titled "Intelligent Management and Efficient Operation of Big Data," authors Jose Moura, Fernando Batista, Elsa Cardoso, and Luis Nunes explore the implementation of Big Data in networking and computing infrastructures. The chapter focuses on three main aspects: timely extraction of relevant knowledge from heterogeneous and often unstructured large data sources; enhancement of processing and networking infrastructures that serve as foundational pillars for Big Data applications or services; and efficient management of network infrastructures with high-level composed policies to support transmission of large amounts of data with distinct requisites such as video versus non-video. The authors present a case study involving an intelligent management solution to route data traffic with diverse requirements in a wide area Internet Exchange Point. This solution is discussed in the context of Big Data and evaluated for its effectiveness. Overall, this chapter provides valuable insights into how organizations can leverage Big Data to optimize their networking and computing infrastructures for improved performance and efficiency.
