Managing the Big Data project

Everything ‘expands’ in a Big Data project. There are many more decision points, even before you draw the first entity in your ERD design tool. A typical IT lifecycle, of any type, consists of

1. Analysis (“You start coding and I’ll go upstairs and see what the business wants”);
2. Design (“Is this a pattern that has previously been designed?”)
3. Coding (“Is this a pattern that has previously been coded?”)
4. Testing (“Have we used tests like these, before?”)
5. Implementation
6. Feedback (all positive, right?)
7. All of the above happens in Agile development as well as in Waterfall development, but for this discussion, I’ll ignore the details of Agile work sessions.
