The published diagram is to detail a setup of a Big Data Course.

Fundamentals on databases (SQL and NoSQL), statistics (the R framework) and graph databases
The focus is on the Hadoop eco-system and its programming paradigm, MapReduce
MapReduce is available to be used with easier to master high level query languages like Pig and Hive
While Hadoop is for batch processing there are other usage areas:
- Real-time data access by HBase NoSQL daemon
- Fast but lower data volume processor, Spark
- Machine learning framework that can be run on top of Hadoop: Mahout
To be able to use these tools a well built, secure cluster is to be planned and developed, then operated securely
After the data analysis is done, final steps of visualization are detailed - to make an impact by using the achieved analytic results

A derivative of the course is held at the University of Szeged.
