This course is designed to teach students how to design intelligent applications that remember, learn, and improve over time by combining AI technologies with persistent data storage.
In this 48-hour hands-on program, students will learn how modern applications store data locally and in the cloud, integrate AI models for smart decision-making, and design scalable app architectures. The course focuses on real-world use cases, practical projects, and best practices used in today’s AI-powered applications.
Students will explore how AI processes user data, how that data is stored securely, and how applications can retrieve and reuse information to create personalized user experiences. By the end of the course, learners will be able to design and build complete AI-driven apps that persist data across sessions and devices.
