Project Description

Nowadays there are a number of third party environments that can be used with the HPCC Systems Cloud Native Platform to better fulfill the growing big data needs from customers and organizations. This is a research/investigative project involving choosing one or more third party products of your choice and evaluating how well they work with our cloud native platform. There are a number to choose from and below are just some examples (Azure related solutions are preferred):

• Microsoft Azure Data Lake Analytics

• Open BI

• OLAP Service

• Gitpod

The following requirements must be considered:

• The third party environment should have a sound use case to justify its integration with HPCC Systems (be sure to highlight the use case in your proposal).

• It is expected that the student interested in working on this project idea already possess a significant knowledge on the third party environment of your choice.

Completion of this project involves:

• A functional and documented integration between HPCC Systems and a third party environment of your choice.

• A complete GitHub project with code and documentation.

• A blog, a recorded presentation, and a poster artifact about your project (see examples from previous years here).
