AWS for Data
Know which AWS service to reach for, and be able to defend it with a number.
What you will learn
- AWS for data engineers: which service, and why
AWS has about nine services that could do your job. Picking between them is the interview question, and the answer is always about scale, latency and who maintains it. - S3 in depth: formats, partitioning, lifecycle (coming soon)
- Glue: catalog, crawlers and managed Spark (coming soon)
- Athena and the cost of a scan (coming soon)
- Redshift: distribution keys and sort keys (coming soon)
- Kinesis vs MSK (coming soon)
- IAM for data engineers (coming soon)
- Step Functions and MWAA (coming soon)
How the course works
- Each chapter is a short book: the basics, the explanation in several ways, the words to know, and a two-minute summary.
- Then you test yourself — quiz, puzzles — and recall it on two different days, so it stays.
- Blinks (one idea per screen), games and a daily plan keep you coming back. It is free.
