Struggling to decide **when to fire up a Spark cluster and when to lean on dbt’s elegant SQL models?** You’re not alone! Join the Infolob Data & AI crew for a relaxed, online evening of candid stories, live demos, and open Q&A where we will:

* **Demystify both tools**—what they’re great at, where they stumble, and how they can play nicely together.
* Walk through **three real-world architecture patterns** (Spark-first, dbt-first, and hybrid) you can copy-paste into your own projects.
* Run a **mini-pipeline demo**: Spark cleans messy click-stream data → dbt builds a revenue mart → lineage & tests light up—no slides-only talk here!

**The meetup is in collaboration with [Infolob Global Inc.](https://www.infolob.com)**
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Who should attend?**
Data engineers, analytics engineers, BI developers, architects, and anyone curious about the modern ELT / lakehouse ecosystem. Whether you’re a hardened PySpark coder or just dipping your toes into dbt, you’ll leave with practical “when to use what” guidelines.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Agenda (IST)**

4:00 PM to 4:10 PM: **Virtual lobby opens — say hi in chat, try the ice-breaker poll**
4:10 PM to 4:15 PM: **Welcome & quick update on the meetup group and Infolob Data + AI CoE as well as DBT Practice.**
4:15 PM to 5:40 PM: **Talk + live demo (DBT Core and Redshift) - Speaker: Durga Gadiraju**
5:40 PM to 6:00 PM: **Interactive Q&A, lightning polls & Wrap-up**

**Wait for our email after the session for resources, and after-chat followup (optional)**

*Can’t make the whole session? RSVP anyway and we’ll send the recording and slide deck to everyone who registers. **But don't miss this live session.***
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-

👋 **RSVP now, grab your favorite beverage, and get ready to settle the Spark-vs-dbt debate—spoiler: the answer might be *“both!”***
