Abstract: With the advancement of new technologies in today’s era, Big Data has shown tremendous growth and popularity. With this exaltation , Big data isn’t simply presenting challenge as far as volume yet in addition as far as its high speed generation. New data is fetched extremely fast so it becomes essential to deal with such voluminous data. Machine Learning expedites computers in building models from input data so as to automate decision-making processes. Machine learning algorithms such as ”Random Forest” is used with the help of certain datasets to instruct and train computers and also train them to respond like human beings. Selecting an appropriate dataset(size, parameters) plays an important role in providing efficient and effective result. In this paper, an analytical approach is used for IDS i.e. “Intrusion Detection System “where “ Random Forest algorithm” is used to analyze the training time by increasing the size of the dataset and observe the impact of frequent changes(size) on various evaluation metrics .Finally performance analysis is carried out and It is observed that the performance of IDS is better and more accurate.
