Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the certificate program students will have the ability to:
- Recognize a data-intensive problem.
- Assess the scale of data and requirements.
- Retrieve data using appropriate methods.
- Describe the data layout and define the data repository format (Ex: store).
- Decide the algorithms (Ex: MapReduce) and programming models (Ex: Bayesian).
- Define application-specific algorithms and analytics (Ex: network analysis).
- Design the data-intensive program solution and system configuration.
- Implement the data-intensive solution and test the solution.
- Write a report summarizing the solution and results.
- Incorporate services from cloud computing platforms.
- Study the foundational concepts enabling cloud computing: services-based interface, programmatic consumption of services, virtualization, PKI-based security, large-scale storage, load-balancing, machine images and on-demand services.
- Formulate data-intensive visualization solutions for presenting the results.
