Course Description

In recent years, NoSQL databases have seen a surge in popularity due to their ability to handle large volumes of unstructured data. Learning to leverage NoSQL tools such as column-oriented, document, key-value, and graph databases allows data engineers, analysts, and scientists to interact with a wider breadth of data. These NoSQL databases bring additional functionality to data storage and retrieval that isn’t available in traditional relational databases.

Column-oriented databases

Dive into the world of column-oriented databases and their role in the evolution of data warehouses. Practice working with Snowflake to create and update column-oriented tables, as well as optimize table design for performance. Explore Snowflake’s advanced functionality to work with semi-structured data.

Document databases

Learn to use Postgres JSON as a tool to query document and object-oriented databases and the variety of data types that this technology supports. Hone your skills working with data stored in an array, as well as nested data.

Key-value and graph databases

Grow comfortable working with key-value databases and learn when this NoSQL data store is best applied. Practice using Redis to load and query data and experience the lightning-fast performance of in-memory databases. Explore graph databases and their use cases in data workflows.
