Analytics in a Day (AID) workshop is designed to simplify and accelerate your journey towards using a modern data warehouse to power your business.
The AID workshop teaches customers how to take advantage of analytics in the cloud, from data ingestion to business intelligence. Our role will be to guide workshop attendees through the presentation and hands-on lab. The presentation will explain key concepts and benefits while the lab will provide hands-on instruction on how to deploy an end-to-end analytics solution.
The hands-on lab session allow users to apply newfound knowledge. The new lab uses the new Azure Synapse Studio, as well as the new features that are currently available in public preview.
The labs will be integrated in the system provisioned by Spektra and there is no need to download them in advance.
The following GitHub repos contain the labs for backup purposes.
Starting Aug 1, 2020, Analytics in a Day workshop attendees get access to $150 in Azure credits to continue their learning and exploration for up to 12 hours of Synapse up-time to be used within a week.
This will be enabled on the same lab environment used for workshop, including all the data-sets, and using the same set of credentials.
Workshop participant must ensure that they pause the SQL Pool, and terminate any spark pool clusters, to keep the total up-time below 12 hours.
