It is a common situation that, in any company, employees want to get general information about a topic they are interested in, for example, how many vacation days they have, when was the company founded, do they work on weekends, are there any dressing rules, who is the CEO and so on. Of course, there is always a person or multiple persons in the company who can give those answers, but there is a much better way of providing your colleagues with information they need then chasing those all-knowing employees for answers, and that is a fully automated chatbot created with Power Virtual Agent, which is one of the 4 main parts of the Power Platform. In this 35-minutes long guided project, “Use SharePoint & Power Virtual Agent to Create Smart Chatbot”, you will create a SharePoint site and list, add some data to it and create a Power Virtual Agent chatbot which will automate the information flow from your company to the employees. Once the chatbot is up and running, you and your colleagues won’t have to bother other colleagues in person or send them emails or texts anymore, you will be able to have a nice and easy-going conversation with the bot behind the chatbot and find out the information you need. Since this project uses Office 365 services like SharePoint and Power Virtual Agent (part of the Microsoft Power Platform), you will need access to a Microsoft account and a Microsoft 365 Developer Program subscription account. In the video at the beginning of the project you will be given instructions on how to sign up for both. If you are ready to create your artificial co-worker which will help you and your colleagues provide information to others, then this project is for you! Let's get started!

Take the next step in your knowledge of Splunk. In this course, you will learn how to use time differently based on scenarios, learn commands to help process, manipulate and correlate data.

In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn to create an IoT hub in the Azure cloud, and learn to use the Azure IoT Hub extension for Visual Studio Code to monitor and send device-to-cloud messages and cloud-to-device messages. Then you will learn to create an Azure storage account and create a stream analytics job with an IoT hub as input and a storage account as output so that the messages can be stored on the Azure storage. Finally, you will also configure message routing that enables sending telemetry data from IoT Hub to custom endpoints, and to store the data we will route the messages to the blob storage in Azure. Before beginning this course, you should be familiar with the services of Microsoft Azure such as Azure IoT hub, stream analytics, and Storage account. Also, you should have an Azure account prior.

In this course, you’ll increase your knowledge of and experience with relational tables as you explore alternative ways of getting data into tables. You’ll also look at some of the advanced features that can give relational tables super powers. As you learn about the new features, you’ll use SQLiteStudio to apply them to your tables. Those features will enable your tables to more efficiently manage data—while keeping your data safe and accurate. Tables are great for data storage. The concept of organizing data in rows and columns is familiar to most people. Accountants use spreadsheets to organize financial data, making it easier to budget and track expenses. Parents use lists with columns to track their family’s schedules so that everyone gets to participate in outside activities. Even the Internal Revenue Service gets in the game by using tax tables to provide tax amounts for a variety of incomes. Even a simple grocery list is tabular in nature. Each row is an item, with one column having the item's name/description, and a second column noting the quantity needed. It’s no surprise that database designers like to use tables in a relational database to organize and store data. In the Design and Create a Relational Database Table Using SQLiteStudio course you learned about tables. You created and populated a relational table using the SQLiteStudio database management system. That was a great beginning. Now it's time for the next step!

This is a self-paced lab that takes place in the Google Cloud console. This lab shows you how to use the Wrangler and Data Pipeline features in Cloud Data Fusion to clean, transform, and process taxi trip data for further analysis.
