Incorporating machine learning into data pipelines increases the ability to extract insights from data. This course covers ways machine learning can be included in data pipelines on Google Cloud. For little to no customization, this course covers AutoML. For more tailored machine learning capabilities, this course introduces Notebooks and BigQuery machine learning (BigQuery ML). Also, this course covers how to productionalize machine learning solutions by using Vertex AI.
As the use of enterprise Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning continues to grow, so too does the importance of building it responsibly. A challenge for many is that talking about responsible AI can be easier than putting it into practice. If you’re interested in learning how to operationalize responsible AI in your organization, this course is for you. In this course, you will learn how Google Cloud does this today, together with best practices and lessons learned, to serve as a framework for you to build your own responsible AI approach.
In this intermediate course, you will learn to design, build, and optimize robust batch data pipelines on Google Cloud. Moving beyond fundamental data handling, you will explore large-scale data transformations and efficient workflow orchestration, essential for timely business intelligence and critical reporting. Get hands-on practice using Dataflow for Apache Beam and Serverless for Apache Spark (Dataproc Serverless) for implementation, and tackle crucial considerations for data quality, monitoring, and alerting to ensure pipeline reliability and operational excellence. A basic knowledge of data warehousing, ETL/ELT, SQL, Python, and Google Cloud concepts is recommended.
While the traditional approaches of using data lakes and data warehouses can be effective, they have shortcomings, particularly in large enterprise environments. This course introduces the concept of a data lakehouse and the Google Cloud products used to create one. A lakehouse architecture uses open-standard data sources and combines the best features of data lakes and data warehouses, which addresses many of their shortcomings.
