Cloud computing has become a vital enabler for big data analytics, offering scalable, flexible, and cost-effective resources for managing, processing, and analysing massive datasets. This paper investigates the role of cloud computing in big data analytics by examining its infrastructure, service models, and ability to handle vast amounts of data. The synergy between cloud computing and big data analytics provides numerous benefits, including enhanced storage capabilities, on-demand resource allocation, and powerful processing capacities, all of which empower organizations to derive actionable insights and make data-driven decisions. Key areas explored include cloud storage, data processing frameworks, and the integration of machine learning and artificial intelligence to boost analytical performance within cloud environments. Challenges such as data security, privacy, and latency are also addressed, with an emphasis on potential strategies to mitigate these issues. By providing a comprehensive analysis of cloud-supported big data analytics, this study underscores the transformative impact of cloud computing across various sectors, including healthcare, finance, and e-commerce, where data-driven strategies have become increasingly essential.
