Course Overview

Streaming on Cloudera with Apache Flink (DOPS-246) is a two-day instructor-led course by Cloudera designed for data engineers, streaming analytics engineers, and cloud architects who need to build and manage real-time data processing solutions. This training equips professionals with the skills to support Cloudera Streaming Analytics, a low-latency framework powered by Apache Flink and Cloudera’s SQL Stream Builder. With enterprises increasingly adopting real-time analytics—over 70% of Fortune 500 companies now use stream processing for operational intelligence—this course addresses a critical industry demand. Participants should have prior experience with Java, Linux, and Apache Kafka, making it ideal for those advancing in big data and streaming platforms.

The course covers key technologies including Apache Flink, Cloudera SQL Stream Builder, Kafka, Cloudera Manager, Flink Dashboard, and HDFS, all within a hands-on lab environment built on Cloudera Data Platform (CDP). Students gain practical experience deploying a Flink cluster via Cloudera Manager, developing both batch and streaming applications using the DataStream API and Flink SQL, and configuring continuous SQL jobs in SQL Stream Builder. A core project involves building a real-time streaming application that ingests data from Kafka, applies tumbling windows with event time processing and watermarks, transforms streams, and outputs results to a Kafka sink—all monitored through the Flink Dashboard and Streams Messaging Manager for end-to-end visibility.

While DOPS-246 does not lead directly to a certification exam, it prepares learners for advanced Cloudera credentials like the CDP-3002 Data Engineer certification and awards a Cloudera Course Completion Certificate. Certified Cloudera professionals often see significant career advancement, with roles such as Solutions Architect averaging $153,000 and Principal Solutions Architects earning up to $210,547 annually. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official Cloudera courseware, and access to 1-on-1 mentoring, ensuring mastery of real-time analytics. Graduates are positioned to lead high-impact projects in fraud detection, IoT monitoring, and real-time BI, driving innovation in data-driven organizations.
