Big data analytics involves the process of examining large amounts of varied data sets in order to uncover correlations, hidden patterns, and other useful insights.

The health industry has massive amounts of complex heterogeneous medical and clinical data. Applying big data analytics on health data presents huge potential in deriving insights for improving delivery of healthcare. However, the enormity of these datasets poses great challenges in analyses and practical applications to a clinical environment.

In this instructor-led, live training (remote), participants will learn how to perform big data analytics in health as they step through a series of hands-on live-lab exercises.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure big data analytics tools such as Hadoop MapReduce and Spark
• Understand the characteristics of medical data
• Apply big data techniques to deal with medical data
• Study big data systems and algorithms in the context of health applications

Audience

Apache Hadoop is the most popular framework for processing Big Data on clusters of servers. In this three (optionally, four) days course, attendees will learn about the business benefits and use cases for Hadoop and its ecosystem, how to plan cluster deployment and growth, how to install, maintain, monitor, troubleshoot and optimize Hadoop. They will also practice cluster bulk data load, get familiar with various Hadoop distributions, and practice installing and managing Hadoop ecosystem tools. The course finishes off with discussion of securing cluster with Kerberos.

Apache Hadoop is the most popular framework for processing Big Data on clusters of servers. This course will introduce a developer to various components (HDFS, MapReduce, Pig, Hive and HBase) Hadoop ecosystem.

Apache Hadoop is one of the most popular frameworks for processing Big Data on clusters of servers. This course delves into data management in HDFS, advanced Pig, Hive, and HBase. These advanced programming techniques will be beneficial to experienced Hadoop developers.

Audience: developers

Duration: three days

Format: lectures (50%) and hands-on labs (50%).

Audience:

This course is intended to demystify big data/hadoop technology and to show it is not difficult to understand.

This instructor-led, live training in Macao (online or onsite) is aimed at system administrators who wish to learn how to set up, deploy and manage Hadoop clusters within their organization.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Apache Hadoop.
• Understand the four major components in the Hadoop ecoystem: HDFS, MapReduce, YARN, and Hadoop Common.
• Use Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) to scale a cluster to hundreds or thousands of nodes.  
• Set up HDFS to operate as storage engine for on-premise Spark deployments.
• Set up Spark to access alternative storage solutions such as Amazon S3 and NoSQL database systems such as Redis, Elasticsearch, Couchbase, Aerospike, etc.
• Carry out administrative tasks such as provisioning, management, monitoring and securing an Apache Hadoop cluster.

This course introduces HBase – a NoSQL store on top of Hadoop.  The course is intended for developers who will be using HBase to develop applications,  and administrators who will manage HBase clusters.

We will walk a developer through HBase architecture and data modelling and application development on HBase. It will also discuss using MapReduce with HBase, and some administration topics, related to performance optimization. The course  is very  hands-on with lots of lab exercises.

Duration : 3 days

Audience : Developers  & Administrators
