Course Description
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
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.
Course level: Intermediate
Duration: 1 day
Intended Audience
This course is intended for:
