Session Goal:
The objective of this session was to develop a comprehensive textbook for data engineering and machine learning, focusing on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and aiming to serve as an academic resource for graduate courses.
Key Activities:
- Conducted a critical analysis of student responses on detecting cycles in directed graphs to enhance educational strategies.
- Prepared a memo for an upcoming Algorithms 3 meeting, outlining agenda and action items.
- Engaged in exam preparation for data processing and machine learning solutions, covering design, ingestion, storage, analysis, automation, and monitoring.
- Designed a textbook framework for data and machine learning engineering, including editorial details, table of contents, and target audience.
- Outlined foundational and advanced concepts in data engineering and machine learning, with a focus on GCP.
- Developed structured outlines for data pipelines, storage, management, and visualization techniques, emphasizing GCP tools and best practices.
- Planned strategies for maintaining and automating cloud operations, optimizing resources, and monitoring workloads on GCP.
- Architected ML solutions, focusing on model development, training, and scaling using GCP tools like BigQuery ML and AutoML.
- Addressed risk management and continuous evaluation of ML solutions, ensuring compliance and performance within GCP.
Achievements:
- Established a detailed framework for a textbook that will serve as a comprehensive guide for data engineering and machine learning on GCP.
- Developed course outlines and educational resources to support graduate-level teaching.
Pending Tasks:
- Finalize the textbook content and layout.
- Prepare detailed case studies and practical examples for inclusion in the textbook.
- Coordinate with teaching assistants for the implementation of new educational strategies based on the textbook.
