Abstract
The modern increase in data production is driven by multiple factors, and
several stakeholders from various sectors contribute to it. Although drawing a
comparison of the sizes at stake for different big data players is hard due to
the lack of official data, this report tries to reconstruct the yearly orders
of magnitude generated by some of the most important organizations by mining
several online sources. The estimation is based on retrieving meaningful
unitary data production measures for each of the big data sources considered,
and the yearly amounts are then obtained by conjecturing reasonable per-unit
sizes. The final result is summarized in the form of a bubble plot.
