This 8 hour instructor-led class introduces participants to the Big Data & Machine Learning capabilities of Google Cloud Platform. It provides a quick overview of the Google Cloud Platform and a deeper dive of the data processing capabilities. (For a more general overview of Google Cloud Platform, see CP100A)
This class is intended for:
Data analysts
Data scientists
Business analysts
It is also suitable for IT decision makers evaluating Google Cloud Platform for use by data scientists.
This class is for people who do the following with big data:
Extracting, Loading, Transforming, cleaning, and validating data for use in analytics
Designing pipelines and architectures for data processing
Creating and maintaining machine learning and statistical models
Querying datasets, visualizing query results and creating reports
At the end of this oneday course, participants will be able to:
Identify the purpose and value of the key Big Data and Machine Learning products in the Google Cloud Platform
Use CloudSQL and Cloud Dataproc to migrate existing MySQL and Hadoop/Pig/Spark/Hive workloads to Google Cloud Platform
Employ BigQuery and Cloud Datalab to carry out interactive data analysis
Choose between Cloud SQL, BigTable and Datastore
Train and use a neural network using TensorFlow
Choose between different data processing products on the Google Cloud Platform

Course programme
In this module you will be introduced to Google Cloud Platform and the data handling aspects of the platform.
- What is the Google Cloud Platform?
- GCP Big Data Products
- Usage scenarios
- Lab: Sign up for Google Cloud Platform
In this module, we introduce the foundations of the Google Cloud Platform: compute and storage and introduce how they work to provide data ingest, storage, and federated analysis.
- CPUs on demand (Compute Engine)
- GCE: the value proposition
- Lab: Start GCE instance, ssh access
- A global filesystem (Cloud Storage)
- Google Storage, data centers, zones, regions
- GS and its role in data processing
- Lab: Set up a Ingest-Transform-Publish data processing pipeline
- CloudShell
In this module we introduce the common Big Data use cases that Google will manage for you. These are the things that are widely done in industry today and for which we provide easy migration to the cloud.
- Stepping stones to the cloud
- Where GCP started
- Towards no-ops
- CloudSQL: your SQL database on the cloud
- A no-ops database
- Lab: importing data into CloudSQL and running queries on rentals data
- Dataproc
- Managed Hadoop + Pig + Spark on the cloud
- Lab: Machine Learning with SparkML
This module is about the more transformational technologies in Google Cloud platform that may not have immediate parallels to technologies that attendees are using (“what's next”).
- Fast random access
