Cloud Computing and Data Analytics 6 Credits

Course Contents

The exponential growth of the digital universe, particularly in the form of storage and computing power in recent decades, enables companies to accumulate huge amounts of data at moderate cost. Accompanying this technological shift is a widespread realization that collected data contain potentially valuable information. Exploiting this stored data, in order to extract useful and actionable information, is the overall goal of the generic activity termed data analytics. The course includes the following elements:
- Basics of cloud architecture,
- Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
- The MapReduce framework, especially Hadoop
- Fundamental tasks in data mining, i.e., classification, regression, clustering and association rules
- Basic machine learning techniques for classification, regression, clustering and association rules
- Organization of a data mining project, i.e., preprocessing, modeling and evaluation
- Software tools for data analytics
- Data analytics applied in different business domains
- Research directions in data mining and machine learning
