NOTE: This seminar is continued from Thursday afternoon.
\nIt used to be a conversation ab out whether cloud was right for your organization. It is. We can put that c onversation to rest. The conversation is now about how to make the most of cloud technologies. If you still think of the cloud as virtual servers and storage, it’s time for an upgrade! This class walks you through the s pecific technologies available in the AWS data stack. We will discuss capab ilities and use cases, along with significant time spent in the AWS Managem ent Console itself. We will start with the “classic” big data t echnologies of Redshift (petabyte DW), DynamoDB (hosted NoSQL), and Kinesis (real-time streaming). Then we will dive into the most cutting-edge innova tions of Lex, Glue, QuickSight, and Lambda — plus all the new stuff t hat comes out between this abstract and EDW! The goal of the class is to gi ve you better awareness of how the cloud works and to give you the tools an d confidence to explore further when you get home. Highlights:
\n\ n Massively-parallel, columnar storage technology for data warehousing \ n The Smart Data Lake cloud architecture design pattern\n Handling real-time, streaming data \n Event-driven, serverless data processing capabilities \n Voice-enabled, artificial intelligence, and machine learning technologies&n bsp;\n All this, plus a real-life story of getting cloud adopted at a “never -cloud” organization!\n\nNote: This class is specifically looking at detailed capabilities in AWS due to its market leadership position. It i s not a vendor-sponsored session, and other cloud vendors may offer similar services that are better suited to your organization. The right way to app roach this class is to learn what cloud technologies can do, and then take that knowledge home to inform vendor decisions.
