Good Explanations of Concepts and Nice Tests. I got a trilling experience in completing the peer Assignments with keen observation and Analyzing of Concepts learned.Thanq for your course very much.

Nice course to describe the traditional data modeling (RDBMS) as well as various semi-structured and un-structured data modeling and management of the systems (Batch and Streaming data processing)

The final test has little to do with the course. You must do extra study to respond.

The level of the exercises and quizzes don't reflect the content of the course.

This course needs to be updated, especially the twitter feed practical

Some concepts are too abstract, find it hard to understand.

If I could get in a time machine and go back to 2015, and do this course then, this would have been a five star (or maybe four and a half) course. It's an introduction to the ideas behind the technologies and I think back then it would been really really good. The theoretical underpinnings are still good. Clearly a lot of work and attention went into it.
Sadly, the course has been left to fester and rot. There don't appear to have been any updates since around 2017, and a certain amount of the coursework is impossible with the tools they provide you with. Be prepared to have to figure out how old Python programs work in Python 2 and work around the fact that their ClouderaVM cannot get vital updates that you NEED in order to the exercises. It will be an uphill battle trying to get the tech to work. It's so so sad as this clearly was a labour of love from the designers, and there are a few things - like the real time Twitter plot graph - that would have been amazing when they worked. Now, alas, the modules and the authorisations are so different that you will have to do a lot of reasonably advanced work to get any of it even operate at a minimum level.
The discussion forums are useful to an extent, but no-one from the course seems to have paid much attention to it. Think of it as an old abandoned funfair that used to be amazing, where you can still go on some of the rides but where some of them only work if you've brought a spanner and some tech know-how.

This is a difficult subject to teach in an online introduction course, but this was assembled poorly and in need of a reboot. The lectures appear dated, lengthy, and lack much substance (outside of the final lecture). The final, peer graded assessment is a joke. 5/6 peer assignments I graded were the exact, word-for-word copied answers from an internet source. I received a failing review on my first submission with 0 explanation for the grades. I spent the majority of my time in this course not gaining knowledge about BDM, but overcoming bugs associated with running outdated Oracle VM and petitioning to get valid reviews of my final assessment. Easily the worst course taken so far on Coursera.
