So to examine this vast amount of data and get the relevant information from it, analysis should be done and to analyze this huge amount of data is a greater challenge these days. So to analyze these vast amount of data we need the help of several data analytics tools and methods so that it will be easier to deal with it. This survey paper talks about different tools and techniques used for big data analytics. This survey paper tries to provide a clear idea about the genesis of big data, features of big data, and different tools and techniques used to analyze these huge collections of data.
