About this course

Welcome to the course on Containers! We'll start by answering the core question: What are Containers? You'll discover that they are the physical storage for data properties, grouping them together logically. We will then dive into best practices for naming and describing your containers to ensure clarity and maintainability.

Finally, we'll get hands-on with Property Definition. You will learn how to define attributes, select appropriate data types, and enforce data quality with constraints. We'll also cover how to use indexes to optimize query performance.

 

By the end of this course, you'll have the skills to effectively use containers to build robust and scalable data models. 

Who should take this course?
Data Engineer, Data Scientist, and Solution Architects.
