Data Engineering – The fastest growing tech career in the world

Who are Data Engineers?

Data engineering is the process of transforming raw data into valuable information. It’s a critical process for businesses that want to make data-driven decisions and is becoming more important with the advent and availability of data in our daily lives.

Data engineers are professionals skilled in the collection of data, storing it, parsing it for patterns & insights, and utilizing machine learning to analyze the data. Their job requires a critical understanding of both software development tools as well as business skills required to convert that data into valuable information.

Why should you aspire for a career in Data Engineering?
Data Engineering has emerged as a top career choice in today’s data driven world. The supply demand gap in this rapidly growing sector is galloping, creating excellent opportunities for people with the right skills.
Data Engineering Market Size:

India

$10.6 billion to grow 4 times to $42.3 billion by 2025

Global

$29 billion to grow to $106 billion by 2025

India

will account for 41% of the Global DE market by 2025

What are the different roles and profiles in Data Engineering?

Data Engineer

A data engineer lays down the foundation for data management systems to ingest, integrate and maintain all the data sources. The person has knowledge of databases and understands the needs of the business and its long-time data scalability needs. Tools: SQL, XML, Hive, Pig, Spark etc.

Data science

Database Administrator

A database administrator has extensive knowledge of traditional as well as new-age NoSQL and Cloud databases, and ensures that the data generating and the data ingesting systems are up and running in a live business scenario.

ETL Engineer

The ETL engineer is responsible for maintaining the veracity of the data in the source and target systems. They ensure that the right kind of tools, permission and system pipelines are in place for smooth transfer of the data.

Enterprise Data Architect

The enterprise data architect is responsible for visualizing and designing an organization’s enterprise data management framework that describes the processes used to plan, specify, enable, create, acquire, maintain, use, archive, retrieve, control, and purge data. She has extensive knowledge of database tools, languages like Python, Java and Scala, and distributed systems like Hadoop.

Program Objective

The Data Engineering program at Praxis, in association with Genpact and Latentview Analytics as Knowledge Partners, is designed to create professionals who become immediately productive for the organization. The program equips professionals with the know-how of existing tools and technologies for Data Management and Data Modelling and introduces them to the paradigms of Distributed Systems and Cloud Computing. The participants get to work on a Capstone Project that requires them to migrate data to Big-Data platforms and manage the system on the Cloud.

The overarching objective of the program is to equip students with the tools and techniques that enable them to get their first job in the exciting domain of Data Engineering. We want to give this opportunity to both those executives who are engaged in their careers and do not want to give up their existing assignments, and those who would like to attend physical classes and reap the benefits of a campus environment. This is why this program is available in a dual-learning mode.

Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of the course, the students will learn how to:
Re-engineer Enterprise Data Architecture
Work with relational and NoSQL data models
Create scalable and efficient data warehouses
Work efficiently with massive datasets
Build and interact with a Cloud-based Data Warehouse
Automate and monitor data pipelines
Develop proficiency in Stream Processing using Cloud Data Lake
