I felt the course was the perfect introduction for someone like me that has been on the sales side of most software. I feel that it wasnt ovewhelming at all, and I mostly enjoyed the labs.

Very good introduction to Data Engineering. Not too technical, but a very good foundation of both technical concepts and soft skills required in becoming a successful data engineer.
