Automate, Analyze, and Database Administration

Database failures can cost enterprises millions of dollars per hour, while poor capacity planning leads to unexpected outages and budget overruns. This Short Course was created to help data engineering professionals accomplish advanced database administration that ensures both reliability and optimal performance. By completing this course, you'll be able to implement bulletproof backup validation systems, quickly diagnose and resolve database performance issues that plague high-concurrency applications, and create accurate capacity forecasts that prevent infrastructure surprises. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Apply automated backup and restore procedures with checksum verification - Analyze database performance to diagnose and resolve lock contention - Evaluate growth trends to produce capacity-planning forecasts This course is unique because it combines hands-on automation with real-world troubleshooting scenarios that mirror actual production environments. To be successful in this project, you should have a background in SQL fundamentals, database concepts, and basic system administration.
