AI tools are evolving fast, and many are hard to manage or scale across a business. This course shows you how to use frameworks and global standards to build secure, maintainable AI systems for your organisation.
Business AI is only as strong as the data infrastructure behind it. Successfully managing all components of the AI technology stack is essential. You’ll learn how to manage key parts of your AI stack, from internet connectivity, SQL databases and file storage to vector databases and embeddings, all while keeping control and staying secure. We’ll also cover AI Agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP), and show you how open-source tools can simplify complex systems while meeting compliance needs.
