My new Pluralsight courses Cleaning and Preparing Data in Microsoft Azure and Architecting Xamarin.Forms Applications for Code Reuse were just released! Here are the synopsis:

Cleaning and Preparing Data in Microsoft Azure

Abstract

This course targets software developers and data scientists looking to understand the initial steps in a machine learning solution. The content will showcase methods and tools available using Microsoft Azure.

Description

No data science project of merit has ever started with great data ready to plug into an algorithm. In this course, Cleaning and Preparing Data in Microsoft Azure, you’ll learn foundational knowledge of the steps required to utilize data in a machine learning project. First, you’ll discover different types of data and languages. Next, you’ll learn about managing large data sets and handling bad data. Finally, you’ll explore how to utilize Azure Notebooks. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of preparing data needed for use in Microsoft Azure. Software required: Microsoft Azure.

Architecting Xamarin.Forms Applications for Code Reuse

Abstract

A well-architected application is flexible to changing business requirements. This course will teach you how to architect Xamarin.Forms applications in a way that promotes reusable patterns.

Description

As business requirements change, so do solution assumptions. In this course, Architecting Xamarin.Forms Applications for Code Reuse, you’ll learn different architectural patterns in Xamarin.Forms. First, you’ll explore project structure and organization. Next, you’ll discover patterns and standards to promote code sharing. Finally, you’ll learn how to utilize dependency injection in Xamarin.Forms. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of architecting Xamarin.Forms projects needed to optimally promote code reuse.
