Big Data Storage Solution - NoSQL Training Course

This course is intended for developers and data scientists who want to understand and implement artificial intelligence in their applications. Special focus is placed on data analytics, distributed AI, and natural language processing.

Apache Beam is an open source, unified programming model for defining and executing parallel data processing pipelines. It's power lies in its ability to run both batch and streaming pipelines, with execution being carried out by one of Beam's supported distributed processing back-ends: Apache Apex, Apache Flink, Apache Spark, and Google Cloud Dataflow. Apache Beam is useful for ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) tasks such as moving data between different storage media and data sources, transforming data into a more desirable format, and loading data onto a new system.

In this instructor-led, live training (onsite or remote), participants will learn how to implement the Apache Beam SDKs in a Java or Python application that defines a data processing pipeline for decomposing a big data set into smaller chunks for independent, parallel processing.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Apache Beam.
• Use a single programming model to carry out both batch and stream processing from withing their Java or Python application.
• Execute pipelines across multiple environments.

Format of the Course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice

Note

• This course will be available Scala in the future. Please contact us to arrange.

In this instructor-led, live training in Switzerland, participants will learn about the technology offerings and implementation approaches for processing graph data. The aim is to identify real-world objects, their characteristics and relationships, then model these relationships and process them as data using a Graph Computing (also known as Graph Analytics) approach. We start with a broad overview and narrow in on specific tools as we step through a series of case studies, hands-on exercises and live deployments.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand how graph data is persisted and traversed.
• Select the best framework for a given task (from graph databases to batch processing frameworks.)
• Implement Hadoop, Spark, GraphX and Pregel to carry out graph computing across many machines in parallel.
• View real-world big data problems in terms of graphs, processes and traversals.

This instructor-led, live training in Switzerland (online or onsite) introduces Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) and walks participants through the deployment of Spark + Hadoop solution.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Use Hortonworks to reliably run Hadoop at a large scale.
• Unify Hadoop's security, governance, and operations capabilities with Spark's agile analytic workflows.
• Use Hortonworks to investigate, validate, certify and support each of the components in a Spark project.
• Process different types of data, including structured, unstructured, in-motion, and at-rest.

This course covers how to use Hive SQL language (AKA: Hive HQL, SQL on Hive, HiveQL) for people who extract data from Hive

Cloudera Impala is an open source massively parallel processing (MPP) SQL query engine for Apache Hadoop clusters.

Impala enables users to issue low-latency SQL queries to data stored in Hadoop Distributed File System and Apache Hbase without requiring data movement or transformation.

Audience

This course is aimed at analysts and data scientists performing analysis on data stored in Hadoop via Business Intelligence or SQL tools.

After this course delegates will be able to

• Extract meaningful information from Hadoop clusters with Impala.
• Write specific programs to facilitate Business Intelligence in Impala SQL Dialect.
• Troubleshoot Impala.

This instructor-led, live training in Switzerland (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to implement Apache Kafka stream processing without writing code.

MLlib is Spark’s machine learning (ML) library. Its goal is to make practical machine learning scalable and easy. It consists of common learning algorithms and utilities, including classification, regression, clustering, collaborative filtering, dimensionality reduction, as well as lower-level optimization primitives and higher-level pipeline APIs.

It divides into two packages:

• spark.mllib contains the original API built on top of RDDs.

• spark.ml provides higher-level API built on top of DataFrames for constructing ML pipelines.

Audience

This course is directed at engineers and developers seeking to utilize a built in Machine Library for Apache Spark
