BDSCP Module 12: Big Data Architecture Lab

This course module covers a series of exercises and problems designed to test the participant’s ability to apply knowledge of topics covered previously in course modules 10 and 11. Completing this lab will help highlight areas that require further attention, and will further prove hands-on proficiency in Big Data architecture practices as they are applied and combined to solve real-world problems.
As a hands-on lab, this course incorporates a set of detailed exercises that require participants to solve various inter-related problems, with the goal of fostering a comprehensive understanding of how different data architecture technologies, mechanisms and techniques can be applied to solve problems in Big Data environments.
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 12 Study Kit, a number of supplements are provided to help participants carry out exercises with guidance and numerous resource references.
Duration: 1 Day
