It then presents the CodeBasics live data engineering bootcamp as a solution, detailing its curriculum, instructors, pricing, and refund policy. ### Key Points - **AI automation threat to analysts** [00:01] — AI is automating technical work done by data analysts, so companies now expect analysts to contribute to other areas of the data lifecycle such as data engineering. - **Efficiency gain from AI** [00:56] — What used to take 8 hours of work (SQL queries, DAX) can now be done in 4 hours with AI tools, leaving 4 hours for analysts to contribute elsewhere. - **How data engineering fits in** [01:10] — Data engineers build the pipelines that land data into a warehouse. This makes data engineering a natural extension for analysts who want to manage the entire data lifecycle end-to-end. - **Bootcamp structure** [02:19] — The live bootcamp is an 8-week program with weekend live sessions conducted via Zoom, with a brochure available for detailed curriculum. - **Five bootcamp highlights** [02:50] — 1) Industry-relevant, adaptive curriculum; 2) Covers Databricks and Fabric; 3) Fundamentals explained simply and practically; 4) Production-first mindset; 5) AI-assisted data engineering. - **Instructor backgrounds** [03:59] — Dhaval worked at Bloomberg as a software/data engineer and data scientist; Hemanand was a data analytics manager in Europe. Haroun (lead faculty) has 10+ years experience; Naveen transitioned from data analyst to data engineer. - **Weekly curriculum breakdown** [04:51] — Week 1: Advanced SQL engineering; Week 2: Advanced Python engineering; Week 3: PySpark and distributed engineering; Week 4: Cloud (Azure stack, Fabric); Week 5: Analytics engineering and DBT; Week 6: Orchestration (Airflow, Kafka, CI/CD, Git); Final week: Architecture, capstone project, career prep. - **Refund policy** [06:45] — No-questions-asked refund after attending the first two live sessions; 100% money back with no reason required. - **Includes pre-recorded bootcamp** [07:12] — The live bootcamp includes the full pre-recorded data engineering bootcamp, providing more detailed content and hands-on practice for deeper dives. - **Pricing tiers** [08:37] — Regular price is 48,000 rupees in India. A 36,000-rupee tier is available for 'inner circle' participants who provide feedback. Discounts apply if you already bought the pre-recorded bootcamp, Python, or SQL courses. ### Conclusion The video positions data engineering as the logical next step for data analysts facing AI-driven automation, and promotes the CodeBasics live bootcamp as a practical way to gain these skills with industry-experienced instructors. ## Transcript expand your skills in data engineering, then [music] this video is for you. Due [snorts] to AI, some of the technical work that you are doing as a data analyst is being automated and now companies expect [music] you to contribute into other areas of data life cycle such as data [music] engineering. In this video, I'm going to discuss CodeBasics live data engineering bootcamp and we'll go over how this bootcamp can help you learn data engineering skill and prepare yourself for the future. If you don't belong to this category, please skip the video. There are thousands of data analysts working in the industry right now and their job is to provide [music] insight in any company. The way they do that is by building dashboards, let's [music] say in Power BI or Tableau. If you're using Power BI, you'll be writing DAX queries. For ad hoc analysis, you might be writing SQL queries. Now, you all know that writing SQL queries, DAX queries, etc. can be done by AI. So, if you were doing 8 hours of work previously, now same amount of work you can do it in 4 hours with the help of AI tools. So, for remaining 4 hours, companies [music] expect you to contribute in other areas. Now, what are the other areas? As a data analyst, typically you extract data into your Power BI dashboard from a data warehouse. But, how does data come into engineering. Someone has built data engineering pipeline, data pipeline through which the data lands into the data warehouse. And that person is data engineer. So, [music] data engineer can be a natural extension for any data analyst where other than building dashboards and SQL [music] queries, you can also do some of the data pipelining work. That way, you're managing the entire thing end-to-end. Of course, for complex data engineering problem, you need a skilled data engineer. But, some of the average tasks that they are doing, you can do it. And that way you are doing the whole thing end-to-end, and you are adding a lot of value to any organization. Any company would love to hire this type of person who knows data analyst skills, plus some of the data engineering skills. Now, let me tell you how our boot camp can help you achieve this goal. On the screen, you are seeing the page for this cohort. It is an 8-week program where we have sessions [music] on weekends. These are live sessions which are conducted via Zoom. If you want to know uh exact curriculum, etc., then click on this download brochure button and check the detailed content on chapters, lectures, etc. There are five main highlights of this boot camp. The first one is it teaches you what is relevant in the industry today. The curriculum is built and taught by people who are building data pipelines in the industry, and it is extremely [music] adaptive. So, as things are changing, we are uh teaching you the latest things because it's a live cohort. Second, it covers Databricks and Fabric, which are the top unified analytics tools used [music] in the industry. Third, the fundamentals are covered using a very simple and practical explanations. Fourth, production-first mindset. [music] Whatever you will be learning, it will focus on one question. Can this go to production? Can this be approved by a company which is having a good data engineering practice? And the last one, [music] AI-assisted data engineering. You will use AI tools to do your data engineering work.

So, by talking to these past students, you an understanding of the quality of our teaching. A little intro on myself and Hemanand, we both are a data professionals. We have worked in the industry international market. Hemanand was working as a data analytics manager [music] in Europe for many years. I was with Bloomberg. I was doing a mixed role of software engineer and data engineer and data scientist. And we are translating all that industry experience [music] into the teaching content of this cohort. Haroun is going to be the lead faculty of this boot camp. He has [music] 10 plus years of experience in this field. Naveen is an analytics head [music] at CodeBasics. He was a data analyst before. Then he transitioned to data engineering and he has created working pipelines in our company. [music] This way the instructors who will be teaching you have real industry experience [music] as well as they know the art of teaching. On the boot camp page, when you scroll towards the bottom, you will find this weekly curriculum. It is 8 weeks in total. The first week will be advanced SQL engineering. As a data analyst, you already know SQL basics or intermediate SQL. In this one, we are teaching advanced SQL engineering specifically for data engineering. Then we are covering some data modeling and warehousing concepts. Week two is advanced Python engineering. Once again, as a data analyst, you'll have idea about Python programming language. But here, what we are teaching is Python specifically for data engineering. Okay, these are all live classes which happens on weekend over Zoom. Week three, on weekend over Zoom. Week three, PySpark and distributed engineering. PySpark and distributed engineering. Then week four is cloud and modern data When you are going to do data engineering in any company, when you are working on a project, you will be doing all of it in one of the cloud providers, Azure, GCP, or AWS. So, here we are covering Azure data engineering stack, okay? We are also covering Microsoft Fabric engineering. And once you know one cloud platform, learning other cloud platforms becomes very easy. Week five is analytics engineering and DBT. Then you have orchestration and pipelining where we'll cover Apache Airflow, enterprise data pipeline, streaming CI/CD, and reliability is data engineering. So, here we are going to go over Kafka, normal CI/CD concepts, you know, Git branching, GitHub actions, and so on. And then the last week is architecture, capstone, and career. You will build end-to-end capstone project. There will be a project show down, and then there will be sessions on interview prep and system design. We have no question asked refund policy. You will attend first two live sessions, and after that if you feel it is not a right fit, you can just request a right fit, you can just request a refund, and we will give you 100% money back. We will not ask your reason why you are canceling it. Also, it includes our pre-recorded data engineering boot camp. So, the boot camp that we are talking about right now is a live boot camp, but we also have a recorded boot camp where you see recorded videos and you learn on your own. That entire recorded boot camp is included when you enroll for this live boot camp. When you go to this dashboard, you will see this tab, data engineering boot camp, and here you can see that entire recorded boot camp. Now, what you get by going through this lectures is much more detailed content, okay? In the live session, we will be focusing on building. We will of course cover theory, but live sessions are 8 weeks. Whereas, this recorded content contains so much information, so much details on the various data engineering concepts along with the hands-on practice. So, this way you're learning through live sessions, and if you have any questions, etc., you can obviously uh watch the recording of those live sessions. And if you want to do a deeper dive into a specific topic, then you can go to this particular recorded content. And it will have a little more uh content as well than what you're learning in live. For example, all these projects, you know, hyper delivery project and so on. So, you'll find here. Let's talk about price. There are two tiers. [music] The regular pricing is 48,000 rupees in India. [music] category, then the price is 36,000. So, why is it 12,000 less? Well, it is based on value exchange.
