This IBM Self-Paced Virtual Class (SPVC) includes:
- PDF course guide available to attendee during and after course
- Lab environment where students can work through demonstrations and exercises at their own pace
Contains PDF course guide, as well as a lab environment where students can work through demonstrations and exercises at their own pace.
This course is designed to introduce the student to the capabilities of IBM Big SQL. IBM Big SQL allows you to access your HDFS data by providing a logical view to it. You can use the same SQL that was developed for your data warehouse data on your HDFS data.
This course provides context on why you would use Big SQL followed by how to use Big SQL to access your data. It also covers what Big SQL is, how it is used, and the Big SQL architecture. The course also covers how to connect to Big SQL, create tables with a variety of data types, load data in, and run queries against the data. The course also shows how to use Big SQL with other components of the Hadoop ecosystem.
If you are enrolling in a Self Paced Virtual Classroom or Web Based Training course, before you enroll, please review the Self-Paced Virtual Classes and Web-Based Training Classes on our Terms and Conditions page, as well as the system requirements, to ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for this course.

Think this course can be longer, as there are so many details and services that need to be discussed.
Considering how much we had to cover in 5 half-day sessions this was a good primer on learning AWS.
I like the classes delivered by starting with the basic concepts and going through each of them in detail along with their demo on the IBM platform. i like that the classes were very planned and organized.Also, the material provided was very good
Thank you for the lab environment. Thank you for the skillpipe study materials.
ExitCertified class worked well and provided good starting point for Architecting on AWS
