In this course, you will learn to build batch data analytics solutions using Amazon EMR, an enterprise-grade Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop managed service. You will learn how Amazon EMR integrates with open-source projects such as Apache Hive, Hue, and HBase, and with AWS services such as AWS Glue and AWS Lake Formation. The course addresses data collection, ingestion, cataloging, storage, and processing components in the context of Spark and Hadoop. You will learn to use EMR Notebooks 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 EMR.
Prerequisites:
Students with a minimum one-year experience managing open-source data frameworks such as Apache Spark or Apache Hadoop will benefit from this course.
We suggest the AWS Hadoop Fundamentals course for those that need a refresher on Apache Hadoop.
We recommend that attendees of this course have:
- Completed either AWS Technical Essentials or Architecting on AWS
- Completed either Building Data Lakes on AWS or Getting Started with AWS Glue
THIS COURSE IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR TRAINING BUNDLES.
