The topic is enlarged by introducing the concepts of digital marketing as well as how big data can be applied to digital marketing. The objectives of the study include: gathering theoretical information about big data and digital marketing, describing the current situation and performance of the case company Netease Cloud Music. Models such as PEST and new 4Cs are concluded to analyze the situation of the company. Combined with the result of the analysis, recommendations are made in the end.
