- Week 1
- Welcome to the course! In Week 1, you'll discover why you may want a Data Lake, its characteristics and components, and how it compares to other data data scenarios, such as databases and data warehouses.
- Week 2
- in Week 2, you'll build on your knowledge of what data lakes are and why they may be a solution for your needs. You'll explore AWS services that can be used in data lake architectures, like Amazon S3, AWS Glue, Amazon Athena, Amazon Elasticsearch Service, LakeFormation, Amazon Rekognition, API Gateway and other services used for data movement, processing and visualization.
- Week 3
- In Week 3, you'll explore specifics of data cataloging and ingestion, and learn about services like AWS Transfer Family, Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, Kinesis Firehose, Kinesis Analytics, AWS Snow Family, AWS Glue Crawlers, and others. You'll also discover when is the right time to process data--before, after, or while data is being ingested. Given scenarios, you'll be able to easily identify when to process data and match the most appropriate AWS services to each scenario.
- Week 4
- In Week 4, you are going to dive deeper into data optimization and data processing. Demos around best practices will show you how to optimize your dataset for performance and cost--just by using the right tool for the job! You will also discover data security, data visualization tools, and AWS datasets you can use to experiment and get started.
