If more case studies and writing MapReduce programs using Python are added to the last section of the course, it would be awesome.

Very good explanations serving a comprehensive introduction. The transcript of the videos could however be reviewed for accuracy.

Nice study material, easy and lucid explanation. Covers the basic concepts and gives necessary overview. Teachers are excellent.

Very instructive and well designed course for an introduction to Big Data. Liked the hand on projects and the quality of videos.

can be more business oriented...would love to learn more on its business implication

for beginners, this is a very useful course

A REALLY HELPFUL COURSE TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE WORLD OF BIG DATA ANALYSIS WORKS,LOOKING FORWARD TO LEARN THE REST OF THE SERIES

The course provides a solid introduction to Big Data, even if your knowledge is Big Data as a buzzword. Definitely recommended

Great course. Before this, Hadoop was just a dream. Now I can at least count words in a text. I will clear the whole series.

Ur teaching very nice, but some pics and PPT available in our course extra features to be added in our Coursera. Thank u!!

A little slow to start, but probably good to understand the whole picture. The hands on Hadoop is A+ for me as a beginner.

To me, I feel there're too many common senses were talked about. Would be much better if we go strait to the key points...

It would have been nice to understand how to delete directories in Hadoop so that the final exercise was more productive.

Overall a good introduction course to Big Data. It could have been more condensed and contain more programming exercises.

Great introduction to Big Data. Very useful, no matter if you are a skilled technician or just a curious layman. Thanks!

Good introduction to Big Data. Need more practice to really get familiar with all the concepts taught during the course.

The course was good and the instructors were also good at explaining the concept.

Overall I enjoyed learning the course.

Good Intro course.

for Cloudera VM installation to practice Hadoop session, be ready with at least an i5 PC with 8GB RAM

I'm rating the course 4 start because the course is very old and i think its now time for the instructors to update it

The course was well taught, more material needed for the advanced Big data introduction and more practical is needed.

Some of the terms introduced in the course were not explained clearly for learners with zero background on big data.

Great Course , althogh the instructor could've covered the topics much faster , i watched most videos at 1.25x speed

Great Instructor.

A lot of the times there were too much to absorb in a single video; so quizzes were overwhelming

Good introduction into Big Data. Sometimes it needs to be more in depth for example about running map reduce jobs.

It is a very interesting course with a lot of information to have a deep introduction to Big Data,

Thanks,

Eugenio

I think that it's important to know the basis of the big data and its management, but maybe it should be updated.
