AWS Data Engineer Associate 2025: Orchestrating Data Pipelines

Effective orchestration is key to automating complex data workflows across various AWS services. In this course, explore how to manage multi-step pipelines using AWS Step Functions and Amazon MWAA (Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow). Next, discover how to implement fault tolerance, configure retries, handle dead-letter queues (DLQs), and integrate notifications. Finally, learn how to chain multi-step processes (e.g., AWS Glue jobs, EMR clusters) into a single orchestrated workflow and apply advanced DAG techniques such as branching, parallelization, and sensors in Airflow. This course is part of a collection that prepares learners for the AWS Certified Data Engineer – Associate (DEA-C01) certification exam.
