The world is witnessing an unprecedented interest in big data. Big data is data that is big in size (volume), big in variety (structured; semi-structured; unstructured), and big in speed of change (velocity). It was reported that almost 90% of the data worldwide was just created in the past 2 years. Therefore, this paper is an attempt to align ERP systems with big data. The objective is to suggest a future research agenda to bring together big data and ERP. While almost everyone is talking about big data at the product or tool level, relationship with social media, relationship with Internet of things, etc. no one has tried to integrate big data and ERP. A research agenda is discussed and introduced in this paper.
