More on dbt models

Questo corso ti introduce a dbt (data build tool), uno strumento molto diffuso che ha dato impulso all'analytics engineering per la creazione e la manutenzione di pipeline di extract, transform, and load (ELT). Imparerai a costruire data warehouse, eseguire data modeling e trasformazioni, e progettare test per la validazione dei dati. Userai SQL e comandi da shell per svolgere diverse attività con dbt e scoprirai come generare documentazione per gli utenti del tuo warehouse!

Il dbt, o data build tool, ha preso d'assalto il mondo dei dati. Questo corso ti spiega i concetti, i termini e i metodi per usare dbt per creare un data warehouse di esempio. Capirai cos'è il dbt, quando è meglio usarlo e quali sono le migliori pratiche per implementare il data warehousing. Lavorerai con dati reali e farai operazioni di estrazione, caricamento e trasformazione, proprio come si fa nei ruoli di analista dati, ingegnere dati e ingegnere analitico.

Gli studenti impareranno a creare un data warehouse da zero, modellare e trasformare i dati e fare dei test! Questo corso ti darà una base solida su cui costruire il tuo percorso con DBT, indipendentemente dal tipo di data warehouse che vuoi implementare. Acquisisci sicurezza su come e quando usare dbt facendo esercizi con SQL e comandi shell.
