Are Big Data specialists relevant in Russia?

Question

big data

Hello, there is a desire to engage in Big Data.
But are such specialists really needed in the Russian Federation? Are they in great demand? And are they well paid?
I heard that in the US the demand is very high and will continue to grow.
And in the Russian Federation, apart from Yandex and mail ru, do they need someone else?
And another question, what do such specialists usually do?
So you come to work, what do you usually do during the week?

Answer 1

BigData is about five firms in the whole world.
Everyone else is just using that buzzword for something else
. You are not Google.

Answer 2

Well, judge for yourself: what else is a huge demand, if you do not see it?
Demand is very small, tiny.
And such specialists drive BigData back and forth all week. It would be better to do business, by golly.

Answer 3

Usually, during the week, I come to work and work.
Would you at least specify which side of biglaty you are talking about? Programmer / admin / support?

Answer 4

Demand as it is.
Analyst Big Data
Only this is not BigData. They just intend to lure with a beautiful word.
Actually there:
That is, it's just Data, without the Big prefix.
