If you were asked to design a Cluster that can process 1TB data in under 30 minutes – which approach would you take? and what are the challenges you should consider in the design?





Or take another example, you have got a big restaurant client who has given you Terabytes of data and is asking you to predict what happens if they increase the price of a single item – where do you start?

if they increase the price of a single item – where do you start? Or consider a situation, where client uploads files to you on a daily basis, you need to batch process the uploaded files and generate aggregated reports, all without using RDBMS – what components would you need to plug in to your system?

and generate aggregated reports, all without using RDBMS – what components would you need to plug in to your system? Or take a scenario, where you have sensor events coming from different sources at different speeds with varying data types – how to aggregate them and analyze them in real time to detect anomalies and generate real time statistics? Unfortunately, none of the big-data or analytics courses online give you these kind of real-world hands-on experience. The only way to learn to solve such problems is by actually working on them and being part of the projects that design the solutions to them. Interested in being part of real-world big-data analytics projects and learning from masters who solve these problems day-in and day-out? My-Classes joined hands with industry leaders to give our students a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Project execution procedure:

If you are elected to work on a project, project owners will get in touch with you to discuss about your interests, areas of strengths and areas you need mentoring on. Based on your skills and interests, you would be assigned a mentor to work on one particular task of the real world project. The mentor will guide you to understand the task at hand and help you get started with working on approaching the solution. The tasks, being part of real world projects, will be occasionally complex and the guidance of mentor will be crucial in the beginning stages. As you gain more experience, the initial tasks become easy and you may opt to work on more complex tasks.

Mentor guidance and project discussions all happen online, so you can learn to take part in the projects at your own convenience.
