Course Description

This course covers methods and practices for performing advanced data analytics at scale. Students will build on existing analytics experience and will learn to implement and manage a data analytics environment, query and transform data, implement and manage data models, and explore and visualize data. In this course, students will use Microsoft Purview, Azure Synapse Analytics, and Power BI to build analytics solutions.

Outline

Module 1:  Introduction to data analytics on Azure

Explore Azure data services, concepts of data analytics, and what you need to implement modern analytics at scale. This learning path helps you prepare for the Azure Enterprise Data Analyst Certification.

Lessons:

  • Explore Azure data services for modern analytics
  • Understand concepts of data analytics
  • Explore data analytics at scale

 

Module 2:  Govern data across an enterprise

Use Microsoft Purview to register and scan data, catalog data artifacts, find data for reporting, and manage Power BI artifacts to improve data governance in your organization.  This learning path helps you prepare for the Azure Enterprise Data Analyst Certification.

Lessons:

  • Introduction to Microsoft Purview
  • Discover trusted data using Microsoft Purview
  • Catalog data artifacts by using Microsoft Purview
  • Manage Power BI assets by using Microsoft Purview
  • Integrate Microsoft Purview and Azure Synapse Analytics

 

Module 3:  Model, query, and explore data in Azure Synapse

Query and explore data in Azure Synapse Analytics. You'll learn how to query and visualize data in a data lake and a data warehouse.  This learning path helps you prepare for the Azure Enterprise Data Analyst Certification.

Lessons:
