Here's what's been going on:

🏃 How to build data products, fast

🛡️ Expand data governance easily with Automations

⏪ A new podcast, reflections on the future of data, and a free conference

🏃 Your guide to developing data products faster

If we compare the development of software products vs. data products, data products are almost always slower to develop, ship, and maintain at scale 🐌

What would it look like if we borrowed best practices from software engineering, and brought them to data engineering?

On Thursday, March 14, we're exploring just that with Tobias (Toby) Mao - CTO and Co-founder of Tobiko Data, and former Senior Staff Software Engineer at Airbnb.

Why you should join:

📚 Learn more about software development and design principles

📚 Hear practical examples from Toby about how he has implemented software development principles while designing data products

📚 Find new recommended tools and tech to support implementation

📚 Get expert advice from Toby and Lindsay Murphy
