Abstract
The educational system continuously generates and accumulates a
considerable amount of data. The issue of systematic work with these data by
a wide range of subjects of education today can be called one of the most
significant. Big Data technologies can be a powerful tool for transforming
learning, to rethink approaches, to reduce costs and improve the efficiency of
the educational system itself. Actual is the task of describing the technology
of operating with big data, aimed at the development of educational systems
through the identification of formed patterns in the education system. The
authors determined the methodological aspects of the implementation of
technology of the operating big data in higher education. Leading approach
in this case serves simulation of the educational system with the inclusion in it
of regulatory measures based on its analysis of the formed patterns. As a result
of the research conducted, the authors of the article described the Big Data
technology as a means of developing educational systems, including the
distinguishing features of the Big Data technology, the system management
processes, the direction of data collection in education are structured, and the
properties of the collected Big Data base in higher education are defined.

Keywords
higher education, big data, data personalization, big data management.

1. Introduction
Over a long period, an enormous amount of information is accumulated
in educational systems of educational institutions about various aspects of the
educational process: students, their academic performance and attendance,
teachers and their scientific, educational, as well as administrative activities,
teaching materials (texts of lectures, workshops, audio, video recording, etc.),
etc. These data should be stored, processed and analysed for the effective
management of the learning process. Thanks to advances in information
technology, big data can now be accumulated, analysed, managed in the field
of education. To do this, it is necessary to study the existing data storage and
processing technologies used by the leading countries of the world in
education.
