Integrative Capstone
Own a production data domain end to end. Define contracts and SLAs; model bronze/silver/gold or equivalent layers; ingest batch and streaming structured/unstructured sources; transform with Spark; persist in an open-table format; add quality checks, lineage, observability, IAM/privacy and retention; expose governed datasets to BI/ML/AI consumers; load-test the platform; simulate failure and recovery; and document cost, latency and reliability tradeoffs.
Evidence Standard
- Correct model semantics
- replayable/idempotent pipelines
- schema evolution
- distributed-system reasoning
- data quality evidence
- lineage
- SLOs and incident recovery
- privacy/IAM
- cost/performance
- discoverability
- consumer usability
- reproducible deployment. RELEASE QUALITY STANDARD: long-form academic instruction, explicit limitations and an inspectable capstone artifact - not just claimed
