The site is somewhat lacking in any kind of syllabus or any details of how past fellows(not really sure what that means, in context of a hacker school, although I am familiar with the term in the context of IBM or Sun from days past)

What are some past projects that attendees built?

We don't have a fixed syllabus since we don't operate like a school per se. Instead, the Fellows choose a project and have to make engineering tradeoffs about which tools to use. With that said, most of the past participants focused on distributed systems like Hadoop, Spark, Flink, Kafka, and NoSQL DBs. You can check out past projects on the blog (http://insightdataengineering.com/blog/) and the past Fellows are here (http://www.insightdataengineering.com/fellows.html)
