About the Course

This course is for novice programmers or business people who would like to understand the core tools used to wrangle and analyze big data. With no prior experience, you will have the opportunity to walk through hands-on examples with Hadoop and Spark frameworks, two of the most common in the industry. You will be comfortable explaining the specific components and basic processes of the Hadoop architecture, software stack, and execution environment. In the assignments you will be guided in how data scientists apply the important concepts and techniques such as Map-Reduce that are used to solve fundamental problems in big data. You'll feel empowered to have conversations about big data and the data analysis process....

I'm forced to give 5 stars. I don't want to have a certification on a poor quality course (another coursera mistake). This material needs tremendous amount of work to get finished and revised.

It was interesting. Often times it was a bit difficult to catch the speed of the course. But it provided a quick overview of the Hadoop framework.

The 4th week assignments need more revision as the directions were unhelpful without the aid of the material provided on the discussion board.

The material was good, but it could use a few more challenging assignments. Also, the lectures in Lesson 5 were a bit disorganized.

This course is first step to understand the basics of Hadoop Platform.

Quiz are tricky ,so we need to listen the videos carefully .

Programming assignments were a bit too easy. The course content could use some more depth and assignments a bit more complexity.

In general, it was great! Thank you!

Challenging assignments made the course special. Its less theory and more practice and that's exactly what I'm looking for.

Course content is good. Speed to response and instructor help in discussion group must be improved to get 5-star from me.

Programming assignments expect python skills. More (but maybe shorter) quizzes for theoretical stuff could be helpful.

All the assignments are in Python. It would be great if they are taught in other platforms like Java too :)

Good for initial learning. Spark lessons ... more clear explanation are needed to understand properly
