About the Course

In this course, you will be introduced to the data engineering lifecycle, from data generation in source systems, to ingestion, transformation, storage, and serving data to downstream stakeholders. You’ll study the key undercurrents that affect all stages of the lifecycle, and start developing a framework for how to think like a data engineer. To gain hands-on practice, you’ll gather stakeholder needs, translate those needs into system requirements, and choose tools and technologies to build systems that provide business value. By the end of this course you’ll be spinning up batch and streaming data pipelines to serve product recommendations on the AWS cloud!...

I appreciate the addition of the DE mental framework as it gives a whole lot of context to the more practical knowledge that will be learned in the next courses.

One of the best courses in the platform, it will guide you to the fundamental principles of data engineering and you'll build your first pipeline for stream and batch data

As someone already in the field of data, this course was pretty easy, but I could see it being pretty difficult for newcomers to understand all of the material. I would have preferred more focus on the labs, and think they should have started with basic data pipelines instead of complicated Terraform/AWS pipelines right off the back. It would have been cool to implement a data pipeline that's usable for a small project without so much reliance on AWS.

Greate lectures; brain-dead exercises. Auditing the course would be the best

The Lab of week 4 is something confusing

I am extremely dissatisfied with my lab experience (Assignment 3): bad coding practices are being implemented, terraform init stopped working propertly, reboot doesn't reset the setup. No support from Coursera.

The instructor skipped some instructions. There was also mis-spelling. I will not be completing this certificate through Coursera.
