IBM BigSQL for Developers (v5.0) SPVC – 2w634gspl

Course #: 2W634GSPL

Duration: 6.4 Hours

Contains PDF course guide, as well as a lab environment where students can work through demonstrations and exercises at their own pace.

This course is designed to introduce the student to the capabilities of IBM Big SQL. IBM Big SQL allows you to access your HDFS data by providing a logical view to it. You can use the same SQL that was developed for your data warehouse data on your HDFS data.

This course provides context on why you would use Big SQL followed by how to use Big SQL to access your data. It also covers what Big SQL is, how it is used, and the Big SQL architecture. The course also covers how to connect to Big SQL, create tables with a variety of data types, load data in, and run queries against the data. The course also shows how to use Big SQL with other components of the Hadoop ecosystem.
