MODULE DESCRIPTION

Introduction This is a compulsory unit for the 3rd year students who follows BSc (Hons) in IT
specializing Data Science program. The objective of this unit is to provide learning
environment to take in depth understanding of both the theory and practices in the
field of Big Data and Cloud Computing.

In this unit, the students will learn:


- Hadoop Eco-system and how MapReduce algorithm works
- Scala programming and Stream processing
- Concepts related to Cloud Computing
- Storage mechanisms using with cloud
- Different Security aspects of cloud
- Different architectures in cloud computing

Learning At the end of the module student will be able to:


Outcomes
LO1: Configure Hadoop framework and supporting tools to execute Map Reduce
program model for distributed processing
LO2: Configure the fundamental elements of cloud computing

LO3: Compare different storage aspects in cloud computing

LO4: Explain different aspects of security in cloud computing

LO5: Design and develop databases with cloud

LO6: Use different architectures when developing cloud based applications

Assessment The following assessments will be held during the semester.


Criteria
Assignments: The test will be based on the practical work, the questions discussed in
tutorial sessions, and lecture material covered until the week before it is held.

Mini Project: Required to develop an application to execute using Hadoop framework for
a real world problem.

The final examination will be a comprehensive examination based on the practical work
and lecture materials covered during the semester.

The distribution of marks for the assessed components of the unit are as follows:

Continuous Assessments
 Assignments 40 % LO1- LO6
 Mini Project 20 % LO1

GENERIC INFORMATION

Any type of plagiarism is not allowed.


Plagiarism: Academic honesty is crucial to a student’s credibility and self-esteem, and
ultimately reflects the values and morals of the Institute as whole. A student may work
together with one or a group of students discussing assignment content, identifying relevant
references, and debating issues relevant to the subject. Plagiarism occurs when the work of
another person, or persons, is used and presented as one’s own.
