Advanced Snowflake

Advanced Snowflake.

De Advanced Snowflake LearningKit is zorgvuldig ontworpen om data engineers en gevorderde gebruikers de vaardigheden te bieden om Snowflake's platform volledig te benutten voor datatransformatie, optimalisatie, geavanceerde analyses en data governance. Deze uitgebreide cursus is verdeeld in vier tracks, die elk gericht zijn op een gespecialiseerd aspect van data-engineering. Het curriculum legt de nadruk op performance-optimalisatiestrategieën, het gebruik van Snowpark voor complexe datatransformaties, het toepassen van machine learning-technieken en het waarborgen van robuuste data governance en -beveiliging. Aan het einde van deze reis hebben de deelnemers diepgaande expertise in het beheren van high-performance workloads, het implementeren van machine learning-modellen en het onderhouden van databeveiliging op Snowflake.

Deze LearningKit met meer dan 25:30 leeruren is verdeeld in drie sporen:
