Session: Cloud Data Engineering
With today’s surge of data comes the problems of processing that data, obtaining the correct skills to manage and analyze that data, and establishing rules to govern the data’s use and analytics. The big data technology stack is ever-growing and sometimes confusing, even more so when we add the complexities of setting up big data environments in the cloud. This talk will discuss different implementation patterns to solve the most common big data use cases and provide pros and cons for different cloud implementation and technology options. It will include a short demo for data ingest, transformation, storage and analytics using Spark, data lake, data warehouse, and reporting technologies.Bio: Muazma Zahid
