Syllabus

WEEK 1
Introduction : Extract, Transform and Load Jobs
Welcome to Week 1 of the AWS: Data Processing .This week, we will focus on determining the appropriate data processing solution requirements and gain an understanding of Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) jobs. We will also gain hands-on experience with implementing ETL jobs to move data between different sources and destinations. By the end of the week, we should have a good understanding of how to effectively process data using ETL jobs and the requirements needed to do so.

WEEK 2
Introduction: EMR
Welcome to Week 2 of the AWS: Data Processing . This week, we will be introduced to Amazon EMR and its various applications such as Spark, Hudi, Hbase, TensorFlow, Flink, Presto, and Hue. We will also learn how to design a solution for transforming and preparing data for analysis using EMR. Through practical demonstrations, we will gain a solid understanding of how to effectively use EMR to process, transform, and analyze large datasets. By the end of the week, we should have a good understanding of how to leverage EMR for data processing and analytics needs.

WEEK 3
ETL Services and Data Processing Solution in AWS
Welcome to Week 3 of the AWS: Data Processing. This week, we will focus on automating and operationalizing a data processing solution using AWS Glue and EMR. We will also compare batch and streaming ETL services to determine the most appropriate solution for our needs.By the end of the week, we should have a good understanding of how to use AWS services to automate and operationalize data processing workflows.
