データエンジニアリング入門

In this first chapter, you will be exposed to the world of data engineering! Explore the differences between a data engineer and a data scientist, get an overview of the various tools data engineers use and expand your understanding of how cloud technology plays a role in data engineering.

Now that you know the primary differences between a data engineer and a data scientist, get ready to explore the data engineer's toolbox! Learn in detail about different types of databases data engineers use, how parallel computing is a cornerstone of the data engineer's toolkit, and how to schedule data processing jobs using scheduling frameworks.

Having been exposed to the toolbox of data engineers, it's now time to jump into the bread and butter of a data engineer's workflow! With ETL, you will learn how to extract raw data from various sources, transform this raw data into actionable insights, and load it into relevant databases ready for consumption!

Cap off all that you've learned in the previous three chapters by completing a real-world data engineering use case from DataCamp! You will perform and schedule an ETL process that transforms raw course rating data, into actionable course recommendations for DataCamp students!
