Cloud Computing Applications, Part 2: Big Data and Applications in the Cloud

It looks like the course was influenced by reviews from 'Cloud Computing Concepts, Part 1' course that contained complaints about the programming assignment, fast pace of the course and complex quizes. (I don't share these complaints, for me that course was incredible)This course gives a too high-level overview of the topics presented. Also, like in the previous part of the course, Mr. Campbell's lectures are too long, boring and hard to understand. This is disappointing since the topics in his lectures are really imporant. The quizes are too easy, no programming assigment, there's just no chance to check if you understood the material deep enough.Spark, CAP theorem, Storm and a lot of other stuff is covered by Cloud Computing Concepts in a more informative and compact way.Almost no imformation about the TensorFlow. It deserves at least a lessson devoted to it.

Again, too much theory. More exercises needed.

I've already written a review for part 1 and I have the same opinion about this one. The course is rather poor and not challenging. Only general information about relevant topics that as well read on wikipedia. No exercises, no code assignments. A lot of this content was repeated from first two parts of this specialization.

I learned a little about a lot of things.

Quizzes are trivial. Makes the certification worthless.Prof. Campbell is not a good lecturer.The topics are treated mostly superficially, then suddenly go into too much detail sometimes (how to use IntelliJ IDEA, machine learning).Subtitles are very buggy.I enjoyed Mr. Farivar's talks much more, it seems like he knows what he is talking about and his presentations are well structured.

course content is good, but the lectures are monotonous and put you to sleep.

Much better than Part 1. This course mostly shows the applications of the topics covered in the Cloud Computing Concepts course using the popular tools from when this course was recorded. There is a decent amount of redundant material from course overlap and this course could be made more concise, but there is still a decent amount of new material. You can probably pass most of the quizzes from knowledge gained in the other course though.

Not enough depth. Put another way not a CS course.

There are very small quizzes in this course. First two parts were much more better and more interesting

The course is good, gives you an overview of many important technologies, although the last module is too superficial.
