Abstract:

“Big data” refers to a huge information collection that has four characteristics: large data volume; complex type; low value density; and high effectiveness. Big data technology is a non-structured data processing technology that can efficiently handle large volumes of data collected by different industries. “Big data of traditional Chinese medicine resources” relates to the large volumes of data with practical significance that are generated during the long development of China’s traditional medicine industry. Inner Mongolia is a region where ethnic minorities live in concentrated communities. With their long historical development, both traditional Mongolian and Chinese medicine have come to play an important role in disease prevention and treatment; considerable amounts of traditional Chinese and Mongolian medicine data have accumulated. One of the most important forces for the current development of resource-related industries with respect to traditional Chinese medicine is how to collect and organize these data is currently an important one in the development of resource-related industries with respect to traditional Chinese medicine; which is also a driving force in the modernization of such medicine. Following scientific and technological development, combining traditional Chinese and Mongolian medicine resources with cutting-edge big data technology offers an effective means for modernizing such medicine. In the present study, we summarizes the construction process of a database was created for traditional Chinese and Mongolian medicine resources and a big data platform for the traditional Chinese medicine industry in Inner Mongolia. This paper also summarizes the results related to the application of big data technology for traditional Chinese and Mongolian medicine resources in that region. At last, a proposal is made for dealing with problems that may be encountered in developing traditional medicine Chinese and Mongolian resources in Inner Mongolia. The research method adopted in the present study can be applied to the sustainable use of traditional Chinese medicine resources. That approach can also address the deficiencies with traditional Chinese medicine and ethnic medicine in different parts of China. This study offers solutions related to research into the application of big data technology for traditional Chinese medicine resources in Inner Mongolia as well as other parts of the country. In that way, this article presents a scientific foundation for applying big data technology for traditional Chinese medicine resources in the future.

Key words: Inner Mongolia, traditional Chinese medicine resources, big data, big data platform for traditional Chinese medicine resources
