T.E. Computer “Cloud Computing, Big Data and IOT” Internship Workshop Report 3rd July 2017 to 8th July 2017

An internship workshop on “Cloud Computing, Big Data and IOT” was organized by C-CODES from 3rd July to 8th July 2017. The speaker was Mr Pravin Hanchinal. The workshop was attended by the 3rd year Computer Engineering students. The coordinators for the workshop were Prof. Merwyn D’Souza and Prof. Kiran Waghmare.
Day 1:
The workshop started with the introduction of cloud computing and different aspects related to it. The participants were then given a hands on session on how to create your own cloud online using Codenvy, which is a cloud environment IDE for coding, building and debugging apps.

Day 2:
The second day was all about how a cloud is made by using virtualization, which is the creation of a virtual-rather than actual-version of something, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or network services.
Later, the students learnt how to create simple apps using two softwares called GitHub and PhoneGap, which is a source code repository and a mobile application development framework respectively.

Day 3:
This session included information about Big Data, which is extremely large data sets that are analysed computationally for patterns, and its management.
Later, the students were shown how to organize data and count the different variables in a series of files using MapReduce, which can organize and reduce the results from each node into a cohesive answer to a query.

Day 4 and Day 5:
The students were shown a live demonstration on Raspberry Pi, which is a small and affordable computer that you can use to learn programming, and its application in IoT or Internet of Things i.e. the internetworking of physical devices embedded with electrical components which enable these objects to collect and exchange data. Mr Pravin also explained how one can use internet to turn on and turn off a bulb.

Day 6:
Mr Pravin enlightened the participants on the career path for the students. He showed them various websites where one can save personal details and create a CV, create blogs and personal websites.
