The DeapSECURE team is excited to announce the open source release of the “Big Data” lesson to the community!

Lesson Website: https://deapsecure.gitlab.io/deapsecure-lesson02-bd/

The Big Data lesson is now fully released with the standard Carpentries-style open source licenses (CC-BY for lesson texts & MIT for codes). Please peruse our lesson materials, teach the lesson, adapt and reuse our lesson portions as you see fit. We would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and issues.

The core hands-on materials, as it is presented in the (pandas-based) lesson, can be performed using typical computers with at least 8 GB RAM and about 1 GB disk space. Learners interested in working with the entire sample “SherLock” dataset would obviously require significantly more computing resources (both RAM and disk storage)—this is where HPC and appropriate cloud resources come in.
