Key to big data analytics, is to discover the underlying patterns in the businesses behaviors. When complexities and randomness increases, the interacting underlying patterns act to form generative orders, which become the emergent patterns.
Key to big data related architecture is to understand generative order and emergent architecture.

Complexity, Structure, Emergent Architecture
Complexity does not require a designer, rather randomness through recursive patterns generate complexities…the result is emergent. The system unassisted by outside sources, by increase in inherent randomness seeks order from generative process, hence it emerges. The architecture or structure of such system is termed “Emergent”
