Module 1: Big Data Lab

This course module presents participants with a series of exercises and problems designed to test their ability to apply knowledge of topics covered previously in course modules 1 and 2. Completing this lab will help highlight areas that require further attention, and will further prove hands-on proficiency in Big Data analysis and technology and practices as they are applied and combined to solve real-world problems.

As a hands-on lab, this course provides a set of detailed exercises that require participants to solve a number of inter-related problems, with the goal of fostering a comprehensive understanding of how Big Data environments work from both front and back-ends, and how they are used to solve real-world analysis and analytics problems.

For instructor-led delivery of this lab course, the Certified Trainer works closely with participants to ensure that all exercises are carried out completely and accurately. Attendees can voluntarily have exercises reviewed and graded as part of the class completion. For individual completion of this course as part of the Module 3 Self-Study Kit, a number of supplements are provided to help participants carry out exercises with guidance and numerous resource references
