Investigate Third Party Environments Working with the HPCC Systems

Investigate Third Party Environments Working with the HPCC Systems

This project was completed by a student accepted on to the 2024 HPCC Systems Intern Program.

Project Description

Nowadays there are a number of third party environments that can be used with the HPCC Systems Cloud Native Platform to better fulfill the growing big data needs from customers and organizations. This is a research/investigative project involving choosing one or more third party products of your choice and evaluating how well they work with our cloud native platform. There are a number to choose from and below are just some examples (Azure related solutions are preferred):

The following requirements must be considered:

  • The third party environment should have a sound use case to justify its integration with HPCC Systems (be sure to highlight the use case in your proposal).

  • It is expected that the student interested in working on this project idea already possess a significant knowledge on the third party environment of your choice.

Completion of this project involves:

  • A functional and documented integration between HPCC Systems and a third party environment of your choice.

  • A complete GitHub project with code and documentation.

  • A blog, a recorded presentation, and a poster artifact about your project (see examples from previous years here).
