Abstract - In a computer network huge data is generated by numerous applications. The data is constantly rising, based on comprehensive operating conditions. Applications generate a torrent of data, disrupting the cloud's previously dependable data processing and analytics capabilities, which had previously been handled successfully prior to the introduction of Big-Data. Blockchain technology helps to eliminate the need for centralization and maintain information integrity and ownership, as well as to mediate transactions and the exchange of digital assets by enabling safe and pseudo-anonymous transactions. It promotes direct agreements between participants. It includes crucial characteristics such as immutability, decentralization and openness, which could help in resolving critical concerns and challenges such as incomplete records at the point of service and limited access to patient’s own health data. Interoperability in Blockchain enables software apps and technology platforms to connect, share, and use data across organizations and app vendors in a secure and seamless manner, resulting in a more efficient and effective healthcare system. Due to a lack of interoperability in healthcare systems it is suffering from compartmentalized and fragmented data, delayed connectivity, and disparate workflow tools. Blockchain technology allows for safe and pseudo-anonymous access to longitudinal, complete, and tamper-resistant medical records held in fragmented systems. Fog computing, also known as fogging, relocates computer applications, data, and services away from the centralized cloud and onto the network edge's logical stream.
Key Words: Block chain, Big-Data, Decentralized, Interoperability, Immutability.
