Use Hadoop and evaluate (Individual Project Development)

MAIN OBJECTIVE OF THE ASSESSMENT

In this assessment, you are required to demonstrate the appropriate practical skills and abilities to implement solutions using modern large-scale data storage and processing infrastructures, and to critically reflect on the concepts, theory and use of high-performance computational infrastructures.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ASSESSMENT

You are required to identify and analyse a real-world problem, design and implement a solution to the problem using Hadoop, and evaluate your implementation. The problem can be a simplified version from its original scale, extent or level of difficulties etc.

LEARNING OUTCOMES AND MARKING CRITERIA

LO1: Demonstrate the appropriate practical skills/abilities required to implement solutions using modern large-scale data storage and processing infrastructures.

LO2: Reflect critically on the concepts, theory and appropriate use of large-scale data storage and processing infrastructures (commonly used in modern organisational environments).
