Data Analytics with Snowflake E-Learning Training 

In de Data Analytics with Snowflake LearningKIT verkent u Snowflake, hoe u Snowflake instelt, query's uitvoert met de Snowflake webinterface, en verschillende bewerkingen uitvoert zoals tijdreizen en Fail-safe in Snowflake. U zult ook het laden van gegevens in Snowflake onderzoeken, Snowflake integreren met Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage en Amazon S3, en gegevens uit Snowflake laden naar alle soorten interne en externe opslag. U leert ook prestatieoptimalisatie en clustering, werken met continue gegevens en semi-gestructureerde gegevens, en het uitvoeren van geavanceerde analyses in Snowflake. U leert ook hoe u Snowflake kunt beheren en administreren en hoe u Snowflake-objecten veilig kunt delen met andere Snowflake-gebruikers.

Deze LearningKit met meer dan 20 leeruren is verdeeld in drie sporen:
