Course Description

A data lake is a system or storage repository that holds vast amounts of raw data. Typically stored in its native format of “data as-is,” without having to structure it, data lakes offer organizations numerous benefits that complement their existing analytic strategies. As an essential piece of the Data Management structure, data often takes its form through dashboards and visualizations to big data processing, real-time analytics, and machine learning to guide better business decisions.

The “What is…?” series of data fundamentals courses, along with associated packaged Learning Plans, are meant to help data and non-data professionals build a common language and understanding between them on significant data-related topics such as Data Management, Data Governance, Data Stewardship, Data Modeling, Data Architecture, and many others.
