Advanced Data Engineering with Snowflake

This is a technical, hands-on course that teaches you how to implement DevOps best practices to build data pipelines, and how to implement observability to maintain and monitor data pipeline health. Discover the most practical Snowflake concepts, features, and tools to help you get you up and running quickly on the platform. Get started by learning about DevOps, DevOps practices, and how DevOps fits into the context of data engineering. Find out how to incorporate source control, declarative management of database objects, continuous delivery, and use the command-line interface to implement DevOps best practices into a data pipeline. Throughout the course, you’ll follow along with the instructor using a combination of Snowflake, VS Code, GitHub, and the command line.
