This Data Science with SQL Server and R Training in Norway introduces R programming, statistics, data mining, and machine learning, and shows how to apply data science within SQL Server and the Microsoft BI stack.
R is the most popular environment and language for statistical analysis, data mining, and machine learning. Its scalable version runs inside SQL Server, Power BI, and Azure ML. While the main focus of the course is R, it also covers how to integrate other Microsoft BI tools like Python, T-SQL, Power BI, Azure ML, and Excel for data science tasks.
Labs focus on R, but demos also feature other languages.
