Data Engineering for Normal People, a talk by Eric Callahan, Principal Data Solutions, Pickaxe Foundry

Talk Description

With the proliferation of no-code tools available to the general public, we are in a golden age of everyday people constructing and operating data pipelines without even knowing it. However, this ignorance to what's going on under the hood can sometimes cause frustration and turn the very people these tools are intended for away from digital products and data altogether. We'll discuss this troubling paradox and what, if anything, we can do about it.
