Course contents
Installation: Cloudera VM, Jupyter server. Big data retrieval and relational querying: Postgres databases, NoSQL data, MongoDB, Aerospike, and Pandas for data aggregation and working with data frames. Big Data Integration: Splunk and Datameer. Big Data Processing: Apache Spark, Hadoop, Spark Core (Spark MLlib and GraphX). Big Data Applications (Graph Processing). Big Data Streaming Platforms for Fast Data. Lab Work: Analysing Twitter Data using Spark and MongoDB. Learn Big Data analytics skills. Practical procedure for the crafting of an enterprise-scale cost-efficient Big Data and machine learning solution to uncover insights and value from data. Use the practical exercises to bridge the gap between the theoretical world of technology with the practical ground reality of building corporate Big Data and data science platforms. Hands-on exposure to Hadoop and Spark (or any of the BD tools), build machine learning dashboards using R and R Shiny, create web-based apps using NoSQL databases. Practical assignment of BD security. New Computing
