FAQs

• What is Big Data Engineering?

  Big data engineering is an important aspect of data science that involves building, maintaining, testing, and assessing big data solutions. It emphasizes the development of systems that allow for better flow and access to the data. It also incorporates the collection of data of disparate sources, cleaning, and processing data to make it ready for analysis.

• What does a Big Data Engineer do?

  A Big Data Engineer prepares data for analytical or operational uses. Their primary roles include building data pipelines to collect information from various sources, integrating, combining, cleaning, and using data for individual analytics applications. Their role evolves from collecting and storing data to transforming, labeling, and optimizing data.

  Big Data Engineers often work with data scientists who run queries and algorithms against the collected information for predictive analysis. They also work with business units to deliver data aggregations to executives. Big Data Engineers commonly work with both structured and unstructured data sets, for which they must be well-versed in different data architectures, applications, and programming languages such as Spark, Python, and SQL.
