Understanding data ingestion, processing, and modern data warehouse concepts for analytics workloads.
Learners will understand large-scale data processing patterns, ETL/ELT processes, and modern data warehouse architecture.
Data ingestion involves collecting data from various sources using appropriate patterns for different volume and velocity requirements.
ETL and ELT represent different approaches to data transformation with trade-offs in performance and flexibility.
Modern data warehouses leverage cloud scalability with decoupled compute and storage for cost-effective analytics.
Analytical data stores optimize query performance through specialized storage formats and processing architectures.
