Efficient Processing of Large-Scale Medical Data in IoT: A Hybrid Hadoop-Spark Approach for Health Status Prediction

In the realm of Internet of Things (IoT)-driven healthcare, diverse technologies, including wearable medical devices, mobile applications, and cloud -based health systems, generate substantial data streams, posing challenges in real-time operations, especially during emergencies. This study recommends a hybrid architecture utilizing Hadoop for real-time processing of extensive medical data within the IoT framework. By employing distributed machine learning models, the system analyzes health -related data streams ingested into Spark streams via Kafka threads, aiming to transform conventional machine learning methodologies within Spark's real-time processing, crafting scalable and efficient distributed approaches for predicting health statuses related to diabetes and heart disease while navigating the landscape of big data. Furthermore, the system provides real-time health status forecasts based on a multitude of input features, disseminates alert messages to caregivers, and stores this valuable information within a distributed database, which is instrumental in health data analysis and the production of flow reports. We compute a range of evaluation parameters to evaluate the proposed methods' efficacy. This assessment phase encompasses measuring the performance of the Spark -based machine learning algorithm in a distributed parallel computing environment.
