What type of system is typically used to analyze large amounts of data?

Cloud computing
Business intelligence
Networking
Data mining

The correct answer is: Data mining

Data mining is the most appropriate choice because it specifically refers to the process of extracting useful information from large amounts of data. Cloud computing may be used as a platform for storing and processing the data, but it is not synonymous with data analysis. Business intelligence is a broad term related to using data for decision making, but it does not necessarily involve analyzing large amounts of data. Networking refers to the connection of computers and devices, which is important for data analysis but is not the primary focus.
