Services Conference Federation (SCF 2025)
International Conference on Big Data (BigData 2025)
https://www.servicessociety.org/bigdata , September 27 - 30, 2025, Hong Kong, China
Theme: Services Agent for Big Data
Introduction of BigData
As cloud computing turns computing and software into commodity services, everything as a service in other words, it leads to not only a technology revolution but also a business revolution. Insights and impacts of various types of services (infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, software as a service, business process as a service) have to be re-examined. The International Conference on Big Data (BigData) aims to provide an international forum that formally explores various business insights of all kinds of value-added "services" based on data. Big Data is a key enabler in exploring business insights and the economics of services.
Sponsored by Services Society and Springer, BigData 2018 was successfully held on June 25 - June 30, 2018, in Seattle, USA. BigData 2019 was successfully held on June 25 - 30, 2019, in San Diego, USA. BigData 2020 and BigData2021 were successfully held virtually on the Internet. BigData 2022 and BigData 2023 were successfully held on December 10 - 14, 2022, and September 23 - 26, 2023, in Hawaii, USA. BigData 2024 was successfully held on November 16 - 19, 2024, in Bangkok, Thailand. In 2025, we will celebrate our 2025 version of gathering, to strive to advance the largest international professional forum on big data and all kinds of data services.
BigData 2025 is a member of the Services Conference Federation (SCF). SCF 2025 will have the following 10 collocated service-oriented sister conferences: 2025 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2025), 2025 International Conference on Cloud Computing (CLOUD 2025), 2025 International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2025), 2025 International Conference on Big Data (BigData 2025), 2025 International Conference on AI & Multimodal Services (AIMS 2025), and 2025 International Conference on Metaverse (METAVERSE 2025), 2025 International Conference on Internet of Things (ICIOT 2025), 2025 International Conference on Cognitive Computing (ICCC 2025), 2025 International Conference on Edge Computing (EDGE 2025), and 2025 International Conference on Blockchain (ICBC 2025).
As the founding member of the Services Conference Federation (SCF), the first International Conference on Web Services (ICWS) was held in June 2003 in Las Vegas, USA. Meanwhile, the First International Conference on Web Services - Europe 2003 (ICWS-Europe 2003) was held in Germany in October 2003. ICWS-Europe'03 is an extended event of the 2003 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2003) in Europe. In 2004, ICWS-Europe was changed to the European Conference on Web Services (ECOWS), which was held in Erfurt, Germany.
To celebrate its 22-year-old birthday, SCF 2025 will be held on September 27 - 30, 2025, in Hong Kong, China.
Conference Proceeding
The Proceedings of BigData 2025 will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) by Springer International Publishing AG. For all 10 collocated conferences of SCF 2025, the content of this proceedings volume will be made freely accessible to anyone in Springer’s digital library after four years upon publication.
Currently, the Abstracting and Indexing services covered by Springer’s data feeds for LNCS proceedings include ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index (included in Web of Science), Engineering Index EI (Compendex and Inspec databases), DBLP, Google Scholar, IO-Port, MathSciNet, Scopus, and ZBlMath.

Topics
BigData 2025's major topics include but are not limited to: Big Data Architecture, Big Data Modeling, Big Data As A Service, Big Data for Vertical Industries (Government, Healthcare, etc.), Big Data Analytics, Big Data Toolkits, Big Data Open Platforms, Economic Analysis, Big Data for Enterprise Transformation, Big Data in Business Performance Management, Big Data for Business Model Innovations and Analytics, Big Data in Enterprise Management Models and Practices, Big Data in Government Management Models and Practices, and Big Data in Smart Planet Solutions.
The technical program of BigData 2025 will include a Research Track, an Application Track, and a Short Paper Track. The BigData 2025 tracks seek original, UNPUBLISHED research papers reporting substantive new work in various aspects of data-based services. Research Track papers MUST clearly indicate their contributions to the field of AI or mobile Internet-based technologies, applications, and solutions. All papers MUST properly cite related work in the field, such as those published in the proceedings of ICWS, SCC, CLOUD, BigData, METAVERSE, EDGE, ICIOT, ICCC, AIMS, ICBC, SERVICES, APSCC, ECOWS, and related journals including IJWSR and IJBPIM (see Literature Recommendations page).
In addition, two special tracks (Real-Time Big Data Analytics, and Big Data/Smart Cities) are included for BigData 2025. The special tracks will significantly expand the scope of BigData to include innovative contributions that cover the entire lifecycle of big data research: (1) vision papers to point out emerging challenges, (2) data sets and benchmarks that enable innovative big data research, (3) technical papers that describe significant research output, (4) applications and experience papers that apply and evaluate research methods and tools, and (5) survey papers that organize and summarize important research results and resources. Accordingly, these broadly defined contributions will be evaluated by PC members with special interest and expertise in each phase of the research lifecycle: vision papers, research contributions, applications and experiences, and enabling resources that include data sets, benchmarks, and surveys.
Technical topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
- Big Data for LLM
- NLP2SQL
- Big Data Storage
- Big Data Indexing
- Big Data Cleaning
- Big Data Modeling
- Big Data Analytics
