Latest updates on the book dedp.online: Timeless Practices for Data Engineers.

About the Book: It does not come finished. Steadily release new chapters every month. It's a journey through the convergence evolution of #dataengineering, authored by @ssp.sh.
New chapter out about Data Engineering Workspace Packaging.
It has finally happened, I uploaded a new chapter to my book. It's called «Data Engineering Workspace Packaging Pattern», and it's all about appropriately packaged data engineering workloads.

Random shoutout - I just started to read Data Engineering Design Patterns by @ssp.sh and it is full of tremendous inspiration, not only from a technical perspective, but also on how to effectively communicate data challenges. Getting pumped abt returning to work after paternity leave

What should be next?
Continuing to write in my book. This time, tackling the «Data Engineering Design Patterns».

Currently writing on Dynamic Querying and Stratified Data Flow Modeling Design Pattern. But many more are in the pipeline.

Which one would you be most interested in? And why?

Latest pattern published.
3. Data Asset Reusability Pattern - My second design pattern from the Data Engineering Design Patterns book, showing how to minimize duplicated business logic through templates, materialization, abstraction, and generation.
Data-Asset Reusability Pattern
Accelerate data engineering development through code and data reuse patterns, from templating to materialization and abstraction.

I am happy to share that I released my second pattern: «Data-Asset Reusability Pattern», focusing on #EfficientDataReuse.

This chapter explores reusability in data engineering with dedicated sub-patterns. But first, what is data-asset reusability?

The history and state of data engineering have changed drastically over the years. Let's explore what and how it changed.

Much has been written about data engineering, but how long has it existed, and where does it come from?

After years in #dataengineering, I've noticed we focus too much on tools & tech, missing the fundamental challenges. It's not about picking the right stack—it's about mastering the complete data lifecycle.

The reality: We can't control source systems and their upstream data yet.

A recent review I've got 🥰.

> what a great content! "awesome, fresh view. I shown it to my fiancee & said "that's what wisdom is, like I would meet an 60 year old druid living in a forest and doing DE pipelines work".

> I'm patiently waiting to read more, It's a great piece &work that inspires me.
Data Engineering Design Patterns.

This book aims to provide a practical guide based on convergent evolution, resulting in design patterns applicable for navigating the data engineering lifecycle—timeless practices for data engineers.
Book: Data Engineering Design Patterns (DEDP): Timeless Practices for Data Engineers
A living Book about Data Engineering Design Patterns, exploring the evolution and its significance. Different from usual books. It does not come finished.
