Intern - Oracle Labs Data Studio

Internship at Oracle Labs in Prague

The
Oracle Labs Data Studio team at Oracle Labs has an opening for an
internship to extend its web-based notebook platform. Oracle and Oracle
Labs 
Oracle,
a global provider of enterprise cloud computing, is empowering
businesses of all sizes on their journey of digital transformation.
Oracle Cloud provides leading-edge capabilities in software as a
service, platform as a service, infrastructure as a service, and data as
a service. 

Oracle’s
application suites, platforms, and infrastructure leverage both the
latest technologies and emerging ones – including artificial
intelligence, machine learning, blockchain, and Internet of Things – in
ways that create business differentiation and advantage for customers.
Continued technological advances are always on the horizon. 

Oracle
Labs is the advanced research and development arm of Oracle. We focus
on the development of technologies that keep Oracle at the forefront of
the computer industry. Oracle Labs researchers look for novel approaches
and methodologies, often taking on projects with high risk or
uncertainty, or that are difficult to tackle within a
product-development organization. Oracle Labs research is focused on
real-world outcomes: our researchers aim to develop technologies that
will someday play a significant role in the evolution of technology and
society. For example, chip multi-threading and the Java programming
language grew out of work done in Oracle Labs. 

Oracle Labs Data Studio

Oracle
Labs Data Studio is a web-based notebook platform for data scientists.
By combining live code collaboration in multiple programming languages
with graph analytics and rich, interactive visualizations, Data Studio
accelerates the process of exploring and gaining insights from your
data.

Data
can be imported to the platform from various sources (from HDFS/Spark,
databases, or files) and analyzed with interpreter environments for a
range of programming languages (Python, R, Shell, Spark, and others).
For graph data (think social networks or financial transactions), Data
Studio comes packaged with Oracle Labs' graph analytics tool (PGX) and
property graph query language (PGQL), adding an interactive visual layer
that supports filtering graphs, highlighting elements, visualizing
geographical data, and expanding/contracting the view, enabling users to
explore large graphs intuitively.

Data
Studio components form a re-usable base for enterprise software
products tailored to specific industries. Example use cases include
financial crime detection and compliance, machine learning for health
sciences, and market segmentation for retail.

As
part of your internship, you will be working on extending Data Studio –
for example by implementing new features, enhancing existing
functionality, measuring and improving performance, fixing bugs, etc.
While specific internship topics may change, here is a selection of
current focus items:
• Versioning and history of notebooks
• Managing interpreter sessions
• Managing system notifications to promote collaboration
• Building end-user applications based on notebook code and models
