To ensure an immersive, self-paced learning experience, this course employs a video-free approach. Instead, assignments feature concise explanations, complemented by visuals and executable SQL code examples. These examples come with suggested modifications, encouraging learners to explore further and deepen their understanding through practical application. Participants will receive immediate feedback through a range of assessment items. These assessments progress from quick comprehension checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and unscrambling SQL queries) to small, manageable coding exercises that can be completed in minutes rather than hours.

Data Manipulation at Scale: Systems and Algorithms (Coursera)

Data analysis has replaced data acquisition as the bottleneck to evidence-based decision making --- we are drowning in it. Extracting knowledge from large, heterogeneous, and noisy datasets requires not only powerful computing resources, but the programming abstractions to use them effectively. The abstractions that emerged in the last decade blend ideas from parallel databases, distributed systems, and programming languages to create a new class of scalable data analytics platforms that form the foundation for data science at realistic scales.

Big Data Analysis with Scala and Spark (Scala 2 version) (Coursera)

Manipulating big data distributed over a cluster using functional concepts is rampant in industry, and is arguably one of the first widespread industrial uses of functional ideas. This is evidenced by the popularity of MapReduce and Hadoop, and most recently Apache Spark, a fast, in-memory distributed collections framework written in Scala. In this course, we'll see how the data parallel paradigm can be extended to the distributed case, using Spark throughout.
