Introduction
“Big Data Centre of Excellence" is the Research and Development centre of AKGEC. It is the first “Centre of Excellence" in AKTU, working in the field of BigData. It was established in 2013 and since 4 years it has been motivating and guiding the students into the world of Big Data. Big Data is the most trending technology of 21st century. It is the hottest market currently. Companies require Big Data Analysts to analyze the large amount of data being generated and gain insights from the data. Businesses are focusing more on agility and innovation, adopting BigData technologies help the companies achieve that in no time. The team aspires to develope skills in Big Data and gradually move from Machine Learning to Deep Learning and finally Artificial Intelligence.
The various technologies on which the team works are:
New comers are recruited as trainees through a recruitment drive. The trainees are given one month training and finalized on the basis of improvement and performance.
Besides helping students of our college, the centre tries to solve the problems of students from other colleges and IT professionals who are new to the world of Big Data. Others can communicate with the centre through website mentioned.
Activities/Events
Since its establishment, the centre is progressing tremendously, winning several online competitions as well as intercollege competitions in Big Data domain. The members of the centre participate in teams also and compete on national level.
Most fascinating and knowledge earning activity is “Knowledge Transfer Session” that takes place every week in the lab itself. During this session, the members share their knowledge on a topic, with other members and also clarify the doubts so that all members stand on the same level. This creates a very interesting and motivating environment in the lab itself.
CODEMAZE 2022
The big data center of Excellence Society successfully organized Two Day offline event (CODEMAZE) for first year and second year students through HackerRank on 7th and 8th May 2022 under the supervision of Dr. Anu Chaudhary (HOD – IT), Dr. Ruchi Gupta (Associate Professor IT Department) and Mr. Sarvachan Verma (Assistant Professor IT Department).
