Look inside

Give your end-users what they want! In this liveProject, your challenge is to deliver an infrastructure that allows your end-users to query an existing, fully functioning modern Lakehouse for two different use cases: analyzing data aggregates over a long period of time to identify trends, and analyzing recently ingested data for monitoring purposes. You’ll use Preset, an SaaS platform that offers a managed version of Apache Superset, to run queries on the Lakehouse and build two interactive dashboards for your distinct use cases.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
