Today, it is very important for all of us to realize how data generation has exploded, and learn about Big Data technology evolution and important milestones of Big Data technologies. Knowingly or unknowingly, many companies have accumulated and invested in volumes of data which is nothing but “Big Data”. At a very high-level, Big Data Analytics technologies provide a means to analyze data sets and draw conclusions about them. This helps organizations make informed business decisions. Traditionally, Big Data systems used to be deployed on premises. However, cloud platform vendors, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft (Azure), Google Cloud (GC) have made it easier to set up and manage Hadoop clusters in the cloud.

This course is a first big step towards mastering Big Data Analytics.

HIGH DEMAND
Corporations are realizing the value of Big Data Analytics and are aggressively pursuing it to gain competitive advantage.

HUGE SUPPLY GAP
Demand for Big Data Engineers far exceeds supply. That means less competition and more pay for trained-experts.

BRIGHT FUTURE
The global Big Data and business analytics market is forecasted to grow up to $274.3 billion by 2022 and these jobs are not going away.

This program covers the basic knowledge and skills that an individual must possess before being trained on the core concepts of Big Data Analytics in addition to Big Data systems and platforms, Data Modelling and Management. This is an “Outcome-based training” with a focus on enabling students to explore the fundamentals of Big Data Analytics, to provide them with a base from where they can upskill themselves for specific Big Data Analytics job roles.

  • Kick-start or re-ignite your career by completing this course. The salaries of Big Data Engineers will only keep rising as the world can’t keep up with the enormous demand
  • Learn Big Data Analytics from a world-class professor with decades of experience teaching at the University of California, added with industry experience of building successful start-ups
  • Learn by doing:
    1. Get hands-on experience by doing several industry-specific projects
    2. Access our “Big-Data-Lab” on the cloud to learn by doing
  • Real-life case-studies and use-cases to give you practical insights
  • Get a certificate of completion in “Big Data Analytics”
  • If you are a student seeking employment to kickstart your career, this is a great opportunity for you to learn about concepts of Big Data and build a rewarding, future-proof, and meaningful career
  • If you are already employed but are trying to rekindle your career in the exciting world of Big Data, this program is perfect for you
  • Regardless of your background, this an online certification course in Big-Data Analytics give you introductory knowledge in the area of Big Data and Analytics
PREREQUISITES:

PROGRAM FACULTY

Dr. Raju Pandey is a Professor Emeritus in the Computer Science department at the University of California at Davis, where he developed and taught graduate and undergraduate courses in programming languages, operating systems, distributed systems, Internet of Things, Wireless sensor networks, Web-based systems, and compilers. He is also the CEO and founder of Thinking Books, a software Infrastructure and Tools company. Dr. Pandey has a deep interest in math and computer science education and has developed novel interactive methods and tools for teaching both algorithmic and system aspects of Computer Science courses.

  • Dr. Pandey’s first startup, SynapSense, was a pioneering IoT company, later acquired by Panduit.
  • His research and entrepreneurial interests lie in AI, Programming Languages, Blockchain, Internet of Things, Cloud, Security, and Privacy. Specifically, his interests are driven by the need to build software systems that are easier to build, analyze and deploy.
  • In this regard, he has developed a novel software platform for building multi-platform AI, Blockchain, Mobile, and IoT applications. The platform includes a next-generation programming language, Ankur, that Dr. Pandey has designed and implemented. The platform will enable development of AI applications in which both algorithm-driven (deterministic) and data-driven (non-deterministic) components of AI applications can be integrated seamlessly.
  • In addition, he consults extensively with companies on AI, Blockchain, IoT, Cloud, Mobile Computing, and Distributed Systems.
  • He has published 40+ papers in conferences and journals and holds 16+ patents in software, visualization, wireless networks, data analytics, security, and control systems.
