Projects

Project 1

CommonCrawl is a free, publicly accessible "crawl" of the web - that is, an archive of web content that has been downloaded and saved for future analysis. Their 2013 archive alone is 250TB in size, encompassing over 4.3 billion pages and documents. In this project, you will work in groups of 1-2 people to process a subset of the CommonCrawl dataset using MapReduce.  But, what portion of data you process, and how you process it, is up to you!
