Dive into the world of data platforms! Our Introduction to Data Platforms training opens doors to understanding, implementing, and optimizing robust data ecosystems.
What is Introduction Data Platforms
Explore the benefits of the modern (cloud-based) data platforms (data lakes, data lake houses, cloud data warehouses), compared to ‘classic’ solutions like in-house data warehouses and data virtualization, but also where these classic solutions provide functionality not (yet) available in modern platforms.
Attend this training if you require an overview of the various data platform architectures and technologies, either because you are new to the subject, or because you are a specialist in one technology, and want to learn from the alternatives.
Our trainers have an extensive background in Data Platform implementation and maintenance. They know how they’re built and used in practice. They can therefore share “real-life” examples of data platform challenges, and how to deal with those.
