The 16th International Conference on Big Data and Cloud Computing (BDCloud 2026)

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

27 December 2026 – 02 January 2027

Call For Papers

Big data refers to datasets that exceed the processing capabilities of traditional software tools, characterized by diverse sources (Variety), large scale (Volume), and high-speed generation (Velocity). Ensuring its value (Value) and reliability (Veracity) is essential for effective decision-making. Meanwhile, cloud computing has emerged as a key platform for delivering IT resources and infrastructure as services, enabling cost-effective, on-demand access through pay-as-you-go models, reducing the need for significant capital investment.
