Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this module students should be able to:
Design and implement a NoSQL database with one or more data models
Design, perform, visualise and report exploration and analysis of data-set.
Identify and evaluate the essential concepts behind a variety of NoSQL data models, including key-value, document oriented and graph data models.
Identify potential security, ethics and data management issues raised by the use of computerised data storage and processing and suggest mitigating strategies.
Brief description
In order to model the wide variety of phenomena that modern data analysts are expected to cover it is important to be able to understand a wide variety of different data storage methods and data models. This module will cover the essential concepts behind modern database models known as NoSQL. We will cover the process of data analytics from initial data modelling through storage, clearing, retrieval, processing, visualising and analysis of a variety of different data models. In addition we will cover technical, legal and ethical issues associated with data collection and storage.
Aims
This module teaches practical data handling, preparation and storage techniques.
This module covers technical, legal and ethical issues associated with data collection and storage.
