DEL #79: Data Governance: The Second 90% of Data Engineering Projects

You build an ELT pipeline to get data from some source, load it into your data lake, and transform it into a usefully modeled dataset for analysts and business users to consume; another data engineering job well done. Except you now have a new set of data artifacts, access patterns, documentation (hopefully), and security permissions to manage.

This talk will provide an overview of Data Governance, which is the art of anticipating, preventing, and mitigating all the risks, costs, and headaches that come with every new data source throughout the data lifecycle.
