From Concepts to Cutting-Edge Data Engineering
Learn how to take data and AI concepts from concept to prototype and to production-ready application. Acquire the skills to develop and run Data and AI solutions at an enterprise-scale with ease! Take part in a specific training or advance through the entire journey. Learn how to build secure data platforms and reliable AI applications that are engineered for scale.
DATA ENGINEERING
The Learning Journey for Data Engineers
How do you become a data engineering expert? Start here! We’ve put together a carefully crafted learning journey for data engineers. Knowing engineers love to figure things out on their own, we packed the program with opportunities to learn, hands-on, by solving real-life situations. Plus, there’s plenty of practical philosophy, too.
We’ll teach you how to leverage Docker to ease your deployments and navigate code written by data scientists ( Advanced Python and Data Science in Production). You will learn to use Apache Airflow, Apache Spark, and Kafka like a forklift to move data around. And we won’t shy away from proven technologies either, like ElasticSearch. We also remain on the cutting edge with others, like Apache Flink.

- Data Engineering on Google Cloud Platform Training / 4-days – Public & In-Company
This course is part of Google’s Data Engineering track that leads to the Professional Data Engineer certificate.
The training gave me a lot of grip and insights on the subject. How to use pandas, cleaning up your data, and plotting data were the most interesting parts for me.
aThe training did not only provide knowledge about pandas, scikit-learn, but also about the way to think as a data scientist.
The training really starts from scratch, which is a great thing for beginners. The training covers a large range of topics in R, ending with a very interesting section on modelling
I liked every aspect of the training and would like to thank the trainers. They did an excellent job in explaining how to use Spark for data science. This is now the fourth training from Xebia that I followed, they were all great, but this was the best one so far.
