Abstract

Traditional data analytics methods are facing significant challenges due to the explosive rise of digital data. Global data generation is expected to reach nearly 175 zettabytes by 2025. This puts significant pressure on existing computing infrastructure. Conventional analytics methods often struggle with scalability, processing speed, and smart decision-making. Rule-based systems and standalone machine learning models frequently cannot handle the complexity and scale of modern big data environments effectively. To tackle these challenges, this research introduces the adaptive distributed analytics intelligence (ADAI) framework. This framework is a multi-layer architecture that combines distributed data processing with machine learning techniques. The first layer emphasizes distributed stream and batch processing, using technologies like Apache Spark and Apache Kafka to manage large-scale data pipelines efficiently. The second layer presents an ensemble machine learning system that merges gradient-boosted trees, deep neural networks, and Bayesian model averaging to improve prediction accuracy and reliability. The third part is the adaptive architecture controller (AAC), which dynamically distributes workloads across different processing modes by analyzing real-time system resources and query complexity. The performance of this framework was assessed using four big data benchmarks: the TPC-DS decision support workload, the Higgs physics dataset with 11 million samples, a financial fraud detection dataset containing 284,807 transactions, and an industrial IoT dataset with 2.4 billion sensor readings from 6,400 devices. Experimental results indicate that ADAI significantly improves analytics performance. The framework achieves up to 3.8 times higher throughput compared to standard Spark-based systems, increases classification F1 scores by 4.7 to 9.3 percentage points, and lowers energy consumption per query by about 31.7% through adaptive workload management. Additional fault tolerance tests show that the system maintains 97.4% processing throughput even when a cluster node fails, underscoring its reliability for real-world enterprise big data applications.
