There is no doubt that one of the most obvious and far-reaching derivations of the Internet and global interconnection through the network is the enormous volume of information to which we have access. It is in this context that the so-called "Big Data" appears, exposing us to great changes in the different areas of our lives, proposing scenarios that point to open governments, transparency and greater closeness to citizens. However, there are many challenges that this new reality poses on Public Administration and there appears not to be unique strategies or models for its implementation. The aim of this work is to review some of the most important concepts that are involved in this era of Big Data in the public sector.
There is no doubt that one of the most obvious and a far-reaching consequences of the Internet and global interconnection through the network is the enormous volume of information to which we have access. In this context, the so-called "Big Data" emerges, exposing us to great changes in different areas of our lives, presenting us with scenarios that point towards open governments, transparency and greater closeness to citizens. This new reality, however, poses many challenges to the Public Administration and there still seem to be no unified strategies and models for its implementation. This article will seek to make a brief review of some of the most important concepts that are involved in this era of Big Data in the public sector. ; Fil: Bellocchio, Lucía.

Es en este contexto en el que aparece el denominado big data, exponiéndonos a grandes cambios en los diferentes ámbitos de nuestras vidas, planteando escenarios que apuntan a gobiernos abiertos, transparencia y una mayor cercanía con los ciudadanos. Sin embargo, muchos son los retos que esta nueva realidad pone frente a la Administración Pública y aún no parece haber estrategias y modelos únicos para su implementación. El presente artículo buscará hacer un breve repaso de algunos de los conceptos más importantes que se ven involucrados en esta era de big data en el sector público.
