SQL, NoSQL, Dữ liệu lớn và Hadoop

A comprehensive look at the wide landscape of database systems and how to make a good choice in your next project

The first time we ask or answer any question regarding databases is when building an application. The next is either when our choice of database becomes a bottleneck or when we need to do large-scale data analytics.

This course covers almost all classes of databases or data storage platform there are and when to consider using them. It is a great journey through databases that will be great for software developers, big data engineers, data analysts as well as decision makers. It is not an in-depth look into each of the databases but promises to get you up and running with your first project for each class.

In this course, we are going to cover 

• Relational Database Systems, their features, use cases and limitations

• Why NoSQL?

• CAP Theorem

• Key-Value store and their use cases

• Document-oriented databases and their use cases

• Wide-columnar store and their use cases

• Time-series databases and their use cases

• Search Engines and their use cases

• Graph databases and their use cases

• Distributed Logs and real time streaming systems

• Hadoop and its use cases

• SQL-on-Hadoop tools and their use cases

• How to make informed decisions in building a good data storage platform

What is the target audience?

• Chief data officers

• Application developer

• Data analyst

• Data architects

• Data engineers

• Students

• Anyone who wants to understand Hadoop from a database perspective.

What this course does not cover?

This course does not access any of the databases from the administrative perspective. So we don't cover administrative tasks like security, backup, recovery, migration and the likes.
Very in-depth features in the specific databases in discussion. An example is that we will not go into the different database engines for MySQL or how to write a stored procedures. 

What are the requirements?
The lab for this course can be carried out in any machine (Microsoft Windows, Linux, Mac OX). 
However, the training on HBase or Hadoop will require you to have a hadoop environment. The suggestion for this will be to to use a pre-installed sandbox, a cloud offering or install your own custom sandbox.

What do I need to know to get the best out of this course?
This course does not assume any knowledge of NoSQL or data engineering.
However a little knowledge of RDBMS (even Microsoft Access) is enough to get you into the best position for this course.
