Renewed 2026–2027

ISG Lille — Big Data Analytics

Master's level, in-person, taught in French. 60+ hours delivered. Students work with Apache Spark on real distributed datasets — sessions are structured around the same architecture decisions made on live client engagements, not textbook examples.

I teach from production systems. Every session is built around decisions made on live client work — students see not just how a tool operates, but why a specific architecture was chosen, where it breaks at scale, and how to fix it. The goal is that someone leaving the module can apply what they learned from day one.
