ABSTRACT
Both computer science and archival science are concerned with archiving large-scale data, but they have different focuses. Large-scale data archiving in computer science focuses on technical aspects that can reduce the cost of data storage and improve the reliability and efficiency of Big Data management. Its weaknesses lie in inadequate and non-standardized management. Archiving in archival science focuses on the management aspects and neglects the necessary technical considerations, resulting in high storage and retention costs and poor ability to manage Big Data. Therefore, the integration of large-scale data archiving and archival theory can balance the existing research limitations of the two fields and propose two research topics for related research - archival management of Big Data and large-scale management of archived Big Data.
