Let’s kick things off for another meetup, this time focussing on scaling analytics with dbt and simplifying Kubernetes job execution. Join us for an engaging meetup on March 13th in Berlin!
Scaling Analytics with dbt: From Implementation to Impact
Managing data transformations, ensuring data quality, and fostering collaboration across teams present significant challenges in data management. This talk will explore the implementation of dbt in a project, highlighting its impact on workflow efficiency, key benefits, and encountered challenges.
A brief introduction to dbt will be provided, explaining how it enables analysts and engineers to transform raw data into clean, well-structured datasets using SQL. Unlike traditional ETL workflows, dbt follows an ELT approach, allowing for version-controlled, modular, and testable transformations in the data warehouse. Additionally, common roadblocks faced during implementation will be discussed, along with key lessons learned that may benefit others considering dbt for their own data workflows.

Kube API: Simplifying Kubernetes Job Execution
Let’s focus on how Kube API simplifies and streamlines interactions with Kubernetes, particularly in managing jobs and workloads through a unified interface. We will share the concept of Kube API as a custom wrapper built on top of Kubernetes, acting as a microservice that provides a seamless experience for clients. The idea is to share how the REST API makes it easy for any one to create, manage, and monitor Kubernetes jobs without having to deal with Kubernetes’ inherent complexities.
Furthermore, we will delve into the microservice architecture behind Kube API, explaining how it provides scalability, modularity, and ease of integration with other systems. we will also demonstrate how Kube API automates job creation and management, ensuring efficient workload distribution and execution.
