This is a DataCamp course: What powers the systems that we use every day without realizing, like fraud detection to keep our transactions secure or traffic signals that keep traffic flowing smoothly? The answer is streaming data (data that is continuously generated by different sources) and serverless technologies—like Amazon Kinesis and AWS Lambda.
<br /> <br />
In this course, you’ll learn how to leverage these powerful technologies by helping a fictional data engineer named Cody. Your goal is to help her to collect real-time streaming data from city-owned vehicles, analyze the data, and send relevant alerts like speed warnings to drivers. Using Amazon Kinesis and Firehose, you’ll learn how to ingest data from millions of sources before using Kinesis Analytics to analyze data as it moves through the stream. You’ll also spin up serverless functions in AWS Lambda that will conditionally trigger actions based on the data received. By the end of this training you’ll know how to create live ElasticSearch dashboards with AWS QuickSight and CloudWatch—and hopefully helped Cody complete her ambitious project.

I recently completed the course "Streaming Data with AWS Kinesis and Lambda," and I wanted to share my thoughts on it. The course was incredibly informative, providing a thorough understanding of how to leverage AWS Kinesis and Lambda for real-time data processing. The instructors did an excellent job of breaking down complex concepts into manageable segments, making it easier to grasp the material. Additionally, the hands-on exercises were particularly beneficial, allowing me to apply what I had learned in a practical setting. Overall, I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to enhance their skills in streaming data and AWS services.
