CS-GY 6333 Massive Data Analysis

3 Credits
Big Data requires the storage, organization, and processing of data at a scale and efficiency that go well beyond the capabilities of conventional information technologies. In this course, we will review the state of the art in Big Data analytics. In addition to covering the specifics of different platforms, models, and languages, we will also look at real applications that perform massive data analysis and how they can be implemented on Big Data platforms. Topics we will discuss include: Map reduce/Hadoop, NoSQL stores, languages such as Pig Latin and JAQL, large-scale data mining and visualization. The course will primarily consist of technical readings and discussions. It will also include programming projects where the participants will prototype data-intensive applications using existing Big Data tools and platforms. |
