UC Data Warehouse Architecture Big Data and Green Computing Project Portfolio

This week’s written activity is a three- part activity. You will
respond to three separate prompts but prepare your paper as one research
paper. Be sure to include at least one UC library source per prompt, in
addition to your textbook (which means you’ll have at least 4 sources
cited).

Start your paper with an introductory paragraph.

Prompt 1 “Data Warehouse Architecture” (2-3 pages): Explain the
major components of a data warehouse architecture, including the various
forms of data transformations needed to prepare data for a data
warehouse. Also, describe in your own words current key trends in data
warehousing.

Prompt 2 “Big Data” (2-3 pages): Describe your understanding of
big data and give an example of how you’ve seen big data used either
personally or professionally. In your view, what demands is big data
placing on organizations and data management technology?

Prompt 3 “Green Computing” (2-3 pages): One of our topics in
Chapter 13 surrounds IT Green Computing. The need for green computing is
becoming more obvious considering the amount of power needed to drive
our computers, servers, routers, switches, and data centers. Discuss
ways in which organizations can make their data centers “green”. In your
discussion, find an example of an organization that has already
implemented IT green computing strategies successfully. Discuss that
organization and share your link. You can find examples in the UC
Library.

Conclude your paper with a detailed conclusion section.

The paper needs to be approximately 7-10 pages long, including
both a title page and a references page (for a total of 9-12 pages). Be
sure to use proper APA formatting and citations to avoid plagiarism.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.

Follow APA6 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.

Support your answers with the readings from the course, thecourse textbook, and at least three scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to yourtextbook. The UC Library is a great place to find supplemental resources.

Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, usingexcellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part onthe quality of your writing.
