Building Batch Data Pipelines on Google Cloud

Data pipelines typically fall under one of the Extra-Load, Extract-Load-Transform or Extract-Transform-Load paradigms. This course describes which paradigm should be used and when for batch data. Furthermore, this course covers several technologies on Google Cloud for data transformation including BigQuery, executing Spark on Dataproc, pipeline graphs in Cloud Data Fusion and serverless data processing with Dataflow. Learners will get hands-on experience building data pipeline components on Google Cloud using Qwiklabs.

• Review different methods of data loading: EL, ELT and ETL and when to use what
• Run Hadoop on Dataproc, leverage Cloud Storage, and optimize Dataproc jobs
• Build your data processing pipelines using Dataflow
• Manage data pipelines with Data Fusion and Cloud Composer

• To benefit from this course, participants should have completed “Google Cloud Big Data and Machine Learning Fundamentals” or have equivalent experience. Participant should also have: • Basic proficiency with a common query language such as SQL. • Experience with data modeling and ETL (extract, transform, load) activities. • Experience with developing applications using a common programming language such as Python. • Familiarity with machine learning and/or statistics
