COMP-2702Data Management
This course covers steps to manipulate and manage data from raw source formats to functional structures where it can be exploited more readily as a valuable information asset. Students will learn industry standard techniques to inspect and visualize data for statistical, aggregate, and design pattern characteristics, and then manipulate the data into suitable representations within relevant data genre models that include relational, document, and network databases. Students will also learn methods to maintain data security using encryption, anonymization, sanitization, roles access, and walled infrastructures. Furthermore, learners will acquire competencies in maintaining data integrity through versioning, backups, archiving, and restoration approaches at various stages of an established data pipeline.
