WDA 308 - Data Warehousing and Mining

1 course unit
Technology has become integral to our lives and as crucial to modern society as the most basic utilities. As a result, data is being generated at an unprecedented rate, and for an organization to compete, it must make sense of it. This course will take an information technology approach to examining the theory, concepts and technologies required to transform data into actionable intelligence in support of decision-making. The warehousing and mining of data represent two ends of a symbiotic process and are examined in detail, from data extraction, transformation and loading to the establishment of an appropriate mining architecture, algorithm and technique. A variety of current tools and technologies will be reviewed and evaluated. The unique challenges presented by “Big Data” will be explored in this course.
