Session Details:
Using a fictional beverage company, this presentation will follow data from POS systems, online transactions, inventory systems, APIs, and CSV files. It will show how PostgreSQL, SQL, and Python are used to store, clean, and transform the data.
The prepared data will then feed into a Power BI dashboard that helps management analyze sales, monitor inventory, forecast demand, and make better business decisions.
