Additional FAQs

Data Engineering Bootcamp FAQs

Data refers to information that has been converted from a basic, unstructured format to something that can be processed and moved easily. 

A Data Engineer is someone who builds systems to collect, validate and prepare, and publish high-quality data. If you're a Data Engineer, you're primarily responsible for converting raw, unstructured data into a format which data scientists can further analyze and interpret. 

Data is knowledge. It is solid evidence, and by collecting data you can tell if a particular system is working or not. Without data, you cannot measure the effectiveness or impact of any process, strategy, or method. Data also helps you visualize existing relationships between several variables in a system

There are no eligibility criteria for this data bootcamp. The aim of this Data Engineer Course is to allow learners from diverse backgrounds to come, understand, and master Data Engineering if they wish. 

To break into a lucrative and rewarding career in data engineering, you need strong fundamentals in coding, database design, and cloud computing. You also need to have sound knowledge in data security, Big Data, and Machine Learning. A good data science course should cover most (if not all) of these topics. 

A Data Engineer is responsible for building systems that collect, process, and convert raw, unstructured data into useful information. Data scientists/analysts will then further analyze this information to glean insights and help stakeholders make better decisions. 

To become a data engineer, holding a degree in computer science or other related field will help you. Apart from a degree, learning about data engineering tools and technologies through a data engineer certification is also a good idea. 

You can become a Data Engineer by enrolling yourself for a data engineer bootcamp or certification.
