    Project 3: Show how financial institutions, such as banks, stand out amongst their competition with big data analysis and insights
    Domain: Banking
    Description: A Portuguese bank has been working on a marketing campaign that advertises the benefits of investing in a bank term deposit. The campaign included calling potential customers on the phone, with some individuals being contacted numerous times. You are tasked with interpreting the information collected from these phone calls. 

    Project 4: Understand how telecom giants, such as AT&T, use big data to make decisions 
    Domain: Telecommunication
    Description: Post a mobile provider launching an Open Network Campaign, it looked to allow customers to raise issues (if needed) with the service offered - whether signal disruption, or service delays. Customers who did experience difficulties with local towers submitted the requested complaints, and this information was collected accordingly.
    The fourth and the fifth field of this data include the latitude and longitude of users, which is essential data for the cell phone provider to have. You must determine the latitude and longitude information on the basis of the available information and establish three clusters of users with a k-means algorithm.

    Project 5: Understand how some of the most popular streaming services, like Netflix, leverage big data
    Domain: The movie industry 
    Description: A college in the United States has acquired information from numerous movie reviews for a research project. You will execute various tasks with that data through Spark to collect important insights.

    Project 6: Learn how online learning programs, such as Simplilearn, use NoSQL and big data 
    Domain: E-learning industry
    Description: In this project, students are tasked with creating a web application with MongoDB for a top online school. It would be expected to cater to scalability for read/write and students should be able to do hands-on practice to perfect skills relating to HTML, Servlet, Java, and others.
