Fundamentals of ETL: What Building data pipelines means, where the landmines are

Real world databases are not an island: Data from one often relates to data in another. But how does data get into a database? That’s what data pipelines are about, and ETL is one key way to get data from one source into your database. In this fundamental discussion, Nuri will break down the key elements of data loading, helping you uncover the characteristics at each stage of the game. You will learn to appreciate the strengths and simplicity of an ETL design. You will also see why and where such things might fail, and which scenarios they fit the best. Understanding the lifetime of data in your infrastructure is key to a well behaved system whether you are a developer, database professional or SRE.
