Syllabus

  • Introduction to Automating Data Pipelines
    • Welcome to Automating Data Pipelines. In this lesson, you'll be introduced to the topic, prerequisites for the course, and the environment and tools you'll be using to build data pipelines.
  • Data Pipelines
    • In this lesson, you'll learn about the components of a data pipeline including Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). You'll practice creating data pipelines with DAGs and Apache Airflow
  • Airflow and AWS
    • This lesson creates connections between Airflow and AWS first by creating credentials, then copying S3 data, leveraging connections and hooks, and building S3 data to the Redshift DAG.
  • Data Quality
    • Students will learn how to track data lineage and set up data pipeline schedules, partition data to optimize pipelines, investigating Data Quality issues, and write tests to ensure data quality.
  • Production Data Pipelines
    • In this last lesson, students will learn how to build Pipelines with maintainability and reusability in mind. They will also learn about pipeline monitoring.
  • Data Pipelines
    • Students work on a music streaming company’s data infrastructure by creating and automating a set of data pipelines with Airflow, monitoring and debugging production pipelines
