This course is intended for students looking to learn data processing on the cloud with Apache NiFi - a visually programmed software tool that automates the movement and transformation of data between systems. 

Course will cover data engineering theory and practical development advice.  Students will learn the basics of Apache NiFi dataflow development, common patterns (feature extraction, database connectivity, etc), debugging and best practices. Completing this course will enable students to effectively develop, tune, and debug Apache NiFi dataflows.   

In addition to the instructor-led lectures, students will have individual access to labs and live demos. Practical hands-on lab exercises customized to students’ daily responsibilities will be included to provide directly applicable experience.
