Description

Introduction

DataOps Automation is the practice of using automated processes and tools to streamline and optimize the flow of data across an organization’s pipelines and workflows. The goal is to enhance efficiency, reduce errors, and ensure that data is processed quickly and reliably. This approach integrates automation, DevOps practices, and agile methodologies to continuously deliver high-quality data to support analytics, machine learning, and decision-making. In this course, we will explore best practices for automating data operations, optimizing workflows, and implementing a robust DataOps strategy for enhanced data delivery and business outcomes.

Prerequisites

Participants should have:

• Basic understanding of data management and data pipelines.
• Familiarity with ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Knowledge of DevOps practices, such as version control, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization.
• Understanding of data quality and governance principles is beneficial.
