What did you use for your warehouse? The volume we work with is not much so I was just thinking of azure SQL database.

I think that's a great idea to showcase hopefully diverse workflows.

Yes, data scientists. However looking back now I should have asked what you meant with workflow workshops? I just assumed it meant "how they do the things they do"

I'd like to learn about what problems they solve and how they choose the tools to solve them. And how those tools integrate with each other.

Resume/LinkedIn wise I'd say someone with a diverse background (industry/domain). I'd figure they would have had to solve different problems in different ways using different tools?

Curious why you want to be able to ID a generalist?

I think part of the reason I posted about my team's stack is because of the lack of representation with the older tech stacks. and People shouldn't be ashamed to talk about it even though it's not what the majority of the posts are talking about.

TIL that BQuery uses a columnar storage format, meaning columns are stored separately. Important to know since BQ pricing is based on data processed by queries. Make sure to only bring in needed columns and LIMIT for sampling.

TIL to orchestrate the same flow as 2025-02-01 except store in GCS and load to BigQuery. Going through the exercises gave me a high-level understanding of Kestra. Practice through projects will help me understand the details by creating flows from scratch. #dezoomcamp

TIL to set up a Kestra to orchestrate extract & load of csvs into a separate pg container. Learned scheduling and backfilling data. Sensing that DE is configuring diff technologies together. Helps to have a higher level of understanding before diving into configuring. #dezoomcamp

lol. No. “Documentation” is step 1, run python script. Step 2, open tableau prep, log in and run the flow. Step 3, refresh power BI workbook. Step 4, publish.
