Welcome learner! This is the first of five courses of the Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate. Jump into the world of data analytics and cloud computing. Explore the data lifecycle in the cloud and gain a better understanding of the common tools used by data analysts.
This is the first of five courses in the Google Cloud Data Analytics Certificate. In this course, you’ll define the field of cloud data analysis and describe roles and responsibilities of a cloud data analyst as they relate to data acquisition, storage, processing, and visualization. You’ll explore the architecture of Google Cloud-based tools, like BigQuery and Cloud Storage, and how they are used to effectively structure, present, and report data.
This is the second course in the Data to Insights course series. Here we will cover how to ingest new external datasets into BigQuery and visualize them with Looker Studio. We will also cover intermediate SQL concepts like multi-table JOINs and UNIONs which will allow you to analyze data across multiple data sources. Note: Even if you have a background in SQL, there are BigQuery specifics (like handling query cache and table wildcards) that may be new to you. After completing this course, enroll in the Achieving Advanced Insights with BigQuery course.
This course is suitable for technology or finance roles managing Google Cloud costs. Learn to set up a billing account, organize resources, and manage access permissions.
