BIG DATA ON AWS

Course Overview

In this course, you will learn about cloud-based big data solutions such as Amazon Elastic MapReduce (EMR), Amazon Redshift, Amazon Kinesis, and the rest of the AWS big data platform. You will learn how to use Amazon EMR to process data using the broad ecosystem of Apache Hadoop tools like Hive and Hue. Additionally, you will learn how to create big data environments, work with Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon Kinesis, and leverage best practices to design big data environments for security and cost-effectiveness.

The AWS Certified Big Data – Specialty certification training is intended for individuals who perform complex Big Data investigations with at least 2 years of experience using AWS technology. Big Data is an advanced certification and its best handled by students who have already gotten associate-level certification in AWS & have some real-world industry experience.

AWS Big Data certification won’t just assistance you become familiar with some new skills, it can position you for a higher paying job or help you transform your present role into a Big Data and Analytics professional.
