Let’s dive into the exciting and rapidly evolving world of data engineering, data architecture, and the cloud. These domains are at the heart of modern business and technology, powering everything from real-time analytics to AI-driven insights and scalable applications. Whether you’re a seasoned professional, a curious learner, or somewhere in between, this meetup is a chance to share knowledge, ask questions, and connect with others passionate about shaping the future of data-driven systems.

Let’s kick things off, this time we are focussing on dbt (data build tool) and Databricks. Join us for an engaging meetup on December 11th in Berlin.

The Day It All Went Down: A True Story of Challenges and Lessons from Our Snowplow Pipeline Outage

An in-depth presentation and discussion of a recent outage in our Snowplow data pipeline, covering the root causes, immediate response measures, recovery strategies, and the lessons learned to improve current infrastructure and prevent future disruptions.

Databricks decoded

We will delve into various projects that illustrate both successful outcomes and the challenges faced along the way. Attendees will hear firsthand accounts of infrastructure setups, customer use cases, and job implementations on Databricks. We’ll discuss what strategies worked well, where we encountered obstacles, and what could be improved for future deployments. Whether you’re new to Databricks or an experienced user, this session offers valuable insights into effectively leveraging this powerful platform for data analytics and engineering.
