The digital age or era in which all existing information is converted to binary digits, is the one that all information is possible to be handled by electronic means, in large volumes and high speeds, and be processed at speeds unimaginable just a few years ago. Billions of data from outer space can be processed in minutes, which a few years ago took months and required hundreds of CPUs. At the end of the second war it was impossible to carry out. This is valid in the field of BIG DATA, transactions of any kind, such as nuclear physics, microbiology, geology, commercial transactions, statistics, genetics or any area that generates a large amount of information.
