Introduction to Modern Data Architecture
Overview
The primary aim of this course is to educate participants about modern aspects of data architecture. Today’s modern data architectures must support data-driven transformation, meaning we must be able to implement various concepts that complement each other. This education is designed first to define the needs, added value, and requirements for architecture, and then show the assessment process that will identify which architectures and design patterns are needed to support the desired data-driven transformation. After the introduction, we delve into architectures such as DWH, Data Lake, Lakehouse, Data Fabric, etc. In the end, we also go through the new concept of Data as a Product and Data Mesh.
Target audience
The course is intended for business and technical teams that need an introduction and a structured overview of Modern Data Architecture. Its intended roles are Business stakeholders, Architects, data engineers, and business and data analysts.
Prerequisites
The prerequisite for this course is that the participants are familiar with the concepts and architectures of data management.
