Disruptive Trends and Technologies Course

In this course, we will learn mainly about Cloud Computing, Machine Learning and Storytelling, which are 3 fundamental concepts to understand where Big Data is going.

This course complements course 2, "Business Analytics in Big Data", since the first one teaches how to obtain knowledge from data and this course will teach the concept of Machine Learning, a methodology that allows us to obtain deeper knowledge from data and, thus, find answers to questions we may not have asked ourselves. In addition, exposing the results is an art that will be covered by Storytelling, a practice to captivate your audience. 

This course is perfect for anyone who wants to be 2 steps ahead of the road ahead for organizations that decide to adopt Big Data technologies and/or projects.

You will learn that Big Data is just the first step in gaining deep insight into your data. This course will teach you that Cloud Computing allows you to dive into Big Data tools without having to implement all that infrastructure. 

In this course, you will also learn that Big Data only allows you to have an "ocean of data", but you need tools, such as Machine Learning, to exploit it properly and finding the "pearl" in this ocean is not enough, you must also have the ability to sell it to your business units and that is where Storytelling comes in, a practice with 7 steps to efficiently expose ideas.
