Building Data Analytics Solutions Using Amazon Redshift

AWS APN Training Partner

In this course, you will build a data analytics solution using Amazon Redshift, a cloud data warehouse service. The course focuses on the data collection, ingestion, cataloging, storage, and processing components of the analytics pipeline.

You will learn to integrate Amazon Redshift with a data lake to support both analytics and machine learning workloads. You will also learn to apply security, performance, and cost management best practices to the operation of Amazon Redshift.

This course includes presentations, interactive demos, labs, discussions and exercises.

Course Contents

  • Module A: Overview of Data Analytics and the Data Pipeline
  • Module 1: Using Amazon Redshift in the Data Analytics Pipeline
  • Module 2: Introduction to Amazon Redshift
  • Module 3: Ingestion and Storage
  • Module 4: Processing and Optimizing Data
  • Module 5: Security and Monitoring of Amazon Redshift Clusters
  • Module 6: Designing Data Warehouse Analytics Solutions
  • Module B: Developing Modern Data Architectures on AWS

You have access to the labs for another 14 days after the course. This way you can repeat exercises or deepen them individually.
