Description
Major updates to the course since the launchUpdate 3 - New sections 25, 26 and 27 added to include Unity Catalog. Unity Catalog is a recent addition to Databricks which offers unified data governance solution for a Data Lakehouse. These sections cover all aspects of Unity Catalog and the implementation using a project. Update 2 - New sections 6 and 7 added. Section 8 Updated. These changes are to reflect latest Databricks recommendations around accessing Azure Data Lake. Also, this provides a better solution to complete the course project for students using Azure Student Subscription or Corporate Subscriptions with limited access to Azure Active Directory. Update 1 - Sections 3, 4 & 5 updated to reflect recent UI changes to Azure Databricks. Also included lessons on additional functionality included by Databricks recently to Databricks clusters. . Welcome! I am looking forward to helping you with learning one of the in-demand data engineering tools in the cloud, Azure Databricks! This course has been taught with implementing a data engineering solution using Azure Databricks and Spark core for a real world project of analysing and reporting on Formula1 motor racing data.This is like no other course in for Azure Databricks. Once you have completed the course including all the assignments, I strongly believe that you will be in a position to start a real world data engineering project on your own and also proficient on Azure Databricks. I have also included lessons on Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, Azure Data Factory as well as PowerBI. The primary focus of the course is Azure Databricks and Spark core, but it also covers the relevant concepts and connectivity to the other technologies mentioned. Please note that the course doesn't cover other aspects of Spark such as Spark streaming and Spark ML. Also the course has been taught using PySpark as well as Spark SQL; It doesn't cover Scala or Java. The course follows a logical progression of a real world project implementation with technical concepts being explained and the Databricks notebooks being built at the same time. Even though this course is not specifically designed to teach you the skills required for passing the Azure Data Engineer Associate Certification Exam DP203, it can greatly help you get most of the necessary skills required for the exam. Similarly, the course teaches the skills required to pass the Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate Certification. I value your time as much as I do mine. So, I have designed this course to be fast-paced and to the point. Also, the course has been taught with simple English and no jargons. I start the course from basics and by the end of the course you will be proficient in the technologies used. Currently the course teaches you the followingAzure DatabricksBuilding a solution architecture for a data engineering solution using Azure Databricks, Azure Data Lake Gen2, Azure Data Factory and Power BICreating and using Azure Databricks service and the architecture of Databricks within AzureWorking with Databricks notebooks as well as using Databricks utilities, magic commands etcPassing parameters between notebooks as well as creating notebook workflowsCreating, configuring and monitoring Databricks clusters, cluster pools and jobsMounting Azure Storage in Databricks using secrets stored in Azure Key VaultWorking with Databricks Tables, Databricks File System (DBFS) etcUsing Delta Lake to implement a solution using Lakehouse architectureCreating dashboards to visualise the outputsConnecting to the Azure Databricks tables from PowerBISpark (Only PySpark and SQL)Spark architecture, Data Sources API and Dataframe APIPySpark - Ingestion of CSV, simple and complex JSON files into the data lake as parquet files/ tables.
