Database Management Systems
Offered By: University System of Maryland via edX
Course Description
Overview
Databases are pervasive in corporations, government agencies and almost any organization across the globe. A number of jobs work solely with databases, like Database Administrator, Database Developer and Database Architect. Numerous other in-demand occupations also need to have database skills, including Software Engineers, Data Scientists and Cybersecurity Engineers. For many decades, organizations have been using Relational Databases. But recently, a new type of database has begun to emerge, NoSQL Databases, adding complexity for professionals seeking to learn how to use database management systems.
In this program, you will learn all aspects needed to work as a Database Administrator and Architect and will learn key database skills beneficial in other occupations. The program covers both Relational Databases and NoSQL Databases. It also covers how to create your own databases and how to interact with the data within them.
