Final Project Prompt: 

The final portfolio project is a three-part activity. 

You will respond to three separate prompts but prepare your paper as one research paper. Be sure to include at least one UC library source per prompt, in addition to your textbook (which means you'll have at least 4 sources cited). 

Start your paper with an introductory paragraph.

Prompt 1 "Data Warehouse Architecture" (2-3 pages): Explain the major components of a data warehouse architecture, including the various forms of data transformations needed to prepare data for a data warehouse. Also, describe in your own words current key trends in data warehousing. 

Prompt 2 "Big Data" (1-2 pages): Describe your understanding of big data and give an example of how you have seen big data used either personally or professionally. In your view, what demands is big data placing on organizations and data management technology? 

Prompt 3 “Green Computing” (1-2 pages):  One of our topics in Chapter 13 and an article you read, surrounds IT Green Computing. The need for green computing is becoming more obvious considering the amount of power needed to drive our computers, servers, routers, switches, and data centers. Discuss ways in which organizations can make their data centers “green”. In your discussion, find an example of an organization that has already implemented IT green computing strategies successfully. Discuss that organization and share your link. 

You can find examples in the UC Library.

Conclude your paper with a detailed conclusion section for 3. 

The paper needs to be approximately 5-8 pages long, excluding both a title page and a references page (for a total of 7-10 pages).

Be sure to use proper APA formatting and citations to avoid plagiarism.

Your research paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately 5-8 pages in length, not including the required (separate) cover page and reference page.
