Course Overview
In this course, you will learn to build batch data analytics solutions using Amazon EMR, an enterprise-grade
Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop managed service. You will learn how Amazon EMR integrates with
open-source projects such as Apache Hive, Hue, and HBase, and with AWS services such as AWS Glue and
AWS Lake Formation. The course addresses data collection, ingestion, cataloging, storage, and processing
components in the context of Spark and Hadoop. You will learn to use EMR Notebooks to support both
analytics and machine learning workloads. You will also learn to apply security, performance, and cost
management best practices to the operation of Amazon EMR.
