The Team : Our take on Big Data
Numerous pages have been penned down in the name of Big Data over the past few years. We think much of that fiber usage is justified. As a team, we strongly believe that the Big Data age embodies a mammoth shift from what we think of as data…although at this point, it may seem like just another label given to a shiny new technology! Through this class, we will attempt to understand best what it really entails and use our knowledge of this powerful technology and spread the right meaning of it when we graduate.
We, the Data Minions are an excited bunch of MIS graduates, keen about working with data and learning more through the MIS 586 course. We may be novices in the Big Data arena right now but we wish to learn the art of wading smoothly through it. We have included pictures and our favorite Big Data quotes, right here!
