Big Data has become an important issue for companies over the past few years, as they face situations that can gauge a company's success or failure in the future, depending on who first analyzes the vast amount of data it already possesses in value. Recently, many advanced companies are trying to secure new insights through Big Data analysis. Since Big Data has emerged as a global trend, Big Data utilization has been revitalized with large corporations, government ministries and public organizations, and companies are giving keen attention to using Big Data to develop new products or services.
Research on Big Data technology is active, but research on technology, case studies and architecture is still insufficient to analyze the key factors to generate results by introducing Big Data. In the case of shipping industry, global companies hold Big Data even before the term "4th industrial revolution" comes out and use it as a tool to improve future shipping competitiveness through combining with various solutions, while in the case of domestic shipping companies, awareness of the importance of ship Big Data is spreading, but it is still more active due to insufficient data sources.
This study aims to study the impact of Big Data on the competitiveness of shipping companies through prior research and examples of companies. To this end, we analyzed the cases of multinational companies in other industries and global shipping companies and tried to prove the positive impact of real profitability through ship performance analysis technology, as a one of Big Data analysis technology.
In addition, it is meaningful in that it has propagated the importance of such Big Data-based operations to shipping and shipping carriers in Korea, and presented the importance of related research to the academic community.
