Module Description: Big data analytics uses advanced techniques to analyze very large, data sets that could be terabytes or more.The big data may include both structured and unstructured data as well as streaming and batch.

Since the company is dealing with very large amounts of data continuously, it is important for the IT team to develop a “Big Data” mindset so that they can use their analysis for predictive modeling. Set up a series of digital scenarios that you would have the IT team work through where they have to make predictive models from a large batch of data.You can find and use an existing data set for this project but need to clearly define what the team is analyzing and how they are to go about making their predictive models. Remember, this is a training exercise.
