This introduction to Cloud Dataflow for practitioners focuses on service fundamentals and the code used to create pipelines with Apache Beam.
What you'll learn
I’m pretty sure you’d agree with me if I said the world runs on data — especially the digital world — and the amount of data is ever-increasing. One way to really get your head around all that information is through data pipelines. Data pipelines pull in the data from a variety of sources, whip it into shape, and then toss it out to other services for storage, analysis, and/or visualization. As you’ll discover in this course, Google Cloud Dataflow is a best-in-class fully managed data processing service, ideal for all your data pipeline needs. Join me as we get hands-on with Dataflow.

About the author
Oddly enough, theater - or more exactly, performance art. After coming to NY to pursue a career as a theater director, I started doing solo work to better understand acting. At the time, I belonged to a group that had received an NEA grant and I used my money to buy a personal computer that I then performed with, on stage. That led me down the rabbit hole of technology and before I knew it, I was writing books on web design - which was quickly followed by building on-line courses as a part-time, and later, full-time content author for ACG and Pluralsight.
