Building your First Data Contract using Open Source Tools

Please join the session that is best suited to your time zone...this topic is repeated at 2 different times.
It's less complicated than it seems. In this session, you will build your first data contract. We will first set the decorum:

• What is a data contract?
• What's its purpose?
• Why it simplifies data engineers' lives?

Then we will jump into the hands-on part, using some (as of now, experimental) open-source tools to generate a skeleton of a data contract, and we will add information to it.

Join us for this fun and fast-paced session, filled with extremely relevant information, whether you are using IBM products or not.
