Many of our pipeline steps follow the pattern of
```python
read_data_from_datastore()
# do exciting and ill-advised stuff here
write_data_back_to_datastore()
```
And frequently when debugging and/deving, I'll comment out the write step for paranoia. And as you would guess it, frequently commit the commenting out. I suppose it's a soft failure, but very hard to debug.
Pipeline behave as they should, dependencies are called, 99% of the log lines you expect are there, but...

Thanks for all the input! So it looks like in the #datascience and #dataengineering and related areas, #python seems to be superceding #rstats as a preferred skill set. As I teach data skills in the #LifeSciences with the key learning objective being an ability to process, visualise and analyse data in a reproducible and scalable way, we're not fixated on what methods we use, so going forwards, it's something to consider...
A great video by Simon Whiteley from Advancing Analytics on Data Lake architecture and how Advancing Analytics build lakes and the different stages of processing they go through.
A great takeaway is not getting hung up on the medallion architecture and confining yourself to the three steps of Bronze, Silver and Gold to process your data.

Ooof, it took a year to close this issue, completing the migration of our ETL and analysis assets into @dagster but we're finally done.
We still need to rename all the tables so there's some semblance of a clear naming convention, but you no longer have to install all the software required to run the ETL if you just want to access all of our outputs.
For a guy that already know a bit of #sql which book would you choose to start from the beginning and reviews concepts already forgotten?:
So if I understand it correctly, the reason why Twitter went with the fan-out-write approach was because you had a tradeoff between writing to an indexed table, or an unindexed table.
In an unindexed table, writes are fast; in an indexed table, writes are slow.
So they decided to write to an unindexed table, but fan out the write to an in-memory cache of each user's timelines.
Does that sound right?
Does Mastodon use fan-out write?
Useful summary of the #dataengineering stack. Missing for me are the extract, load tools like #airbyte, #meltano. Would have liked to see some governance tooling to support data mesh, catalog support too.

Hey #EnergyMastodon, we finally got set up here so I guess we should do an #introduction
Catalyst is an all-remote worker #Cooperative focused on open #DataEngineering, analysis, and open source software. We mostly work with public US data related to the energy system, pulling together information from #FERC, #EIA, #EPA, and other agencies and trying to turn it into analysis-ready database tables so advocates, policymakers, & researchers can focus on their own novel work instead.
Wonderfully insightful links between farming, city/country planning, and informatics. Bit of a weak ending but overall I really enjoyed "Seeing like a state" (1998) by James Scott and would recommend it to anyone working #informatics, #DataScience, or #DataEngineering related to public service https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300078152/seeing-like-a-state/ #miniBookReview
Hey #pandas #dataengineering people - is anyone *happily* using PyArrow `decimal128` types or similar for fixed point arithmetic in DataFrames?
All boosts appreciated for visibility 🔁 🙏
After multiple hours of digging and testing, I think I'm going to recommend our work project avoids them and uses plain Python `Decimal` in DF, even though there's no vectorization 😞
More thoughts in my latest comment in this GH issue thread: https://github.com/intake/pandas-decimal/issues/3#issuecomment-1590957624
What does your testing strategy look like for dbt?
On the one hand I'd like to make sure all models are covered by tests but, on the other hand, maintaining tests and test rot is a big concern.
Do you test all models?
Do you care if some models are not covered by tests?
Any input on strategy welcome 🙏

Data Folks! I need your help!
If I gave you a date in the format of 1220923, would you be able to make sense of it? I desperately need human-readable dates, and I'm losing my mind.
The essential component of any data toolkit: Duck[DB] Tape!
I have a bunch of utilities in a Python package which I use across multiple Python projects. So far I have used the utilities package as an editable install, or sometimes just copied the source for the required utilities into a project.
This approach is breaking down as I start using CI/CD pipelines.
What is the best way forward?
I feel like the correct answer is "Install from private PyPi" but I'm interested to hear your experience
I will be giving the keynote presentation at the Connected Enterprise Forum in Sydney on 23 March. Come join us!
Or Would be great to see you there!
RSVP now. Free to attend.

I never bothered with optimizing the parsing of #jsonl #ndjson files because in most cases it was an one off task before I put the data into a database or parquet file. But the files got bigger and waiting 20 minutes for the data to load made me reconsider my decision. So tried some different approaches.
Tested with a 1.7 GB file of 300 k Tweets.
jsonlines.reader: 17.2 seconds 100%
orjson: 6.49 seconds 37%
msgspec: 3.06 seconds 17%
I like how orjson cuts the time by two thirds without the need to change anything else. Just use it as a drop in replacement and you are good.
msgspec is twice as fast as orjson or six times as fast as jsonlines if you define the schema of the data that you want. For Tweets that's okay, as I can reuse the schema many times. With data that is used only once, I prefer orjson.
Memory usage was nearly identical across the different solutions. Probably because they all parse the data per line. I restarted the kernel each time to get comparable numbers.
Load time for all 23 million Tweets in the dataset was reduced from 25 to 4 minutes.

I am considering a subscription to #medium What do people think? Is it worth it? I use their #software and #dataEngineering articles when suggested by my browser. So far I’ve found them useful but those articles could be a sub sample of the good ones that make it into Google’s recommendation. So far if I find a good one and I cannot access it anymore (you can only access a few per week (?) without subscription), I just open it in a private tab. Is the subscription worth this tiny extra effort?
Today I got my first paid subscriber on my Substack newsletter https://interestingdatagigs.substack.com/subscribe
All my content is free.
So: I’m incredibly grateful that someone still want to support my work.
Today was a good day. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Data is complicated, esp. at scale & w/ lots of ppl in the mixture. A data platform needs to meet so many diff needs, esp. for enterprises - From @adipolak #datadaytexas #ddtx2023 #dataops #dataengineering
@ike At my previous company (~1,000 employees), our #DataEngineering team (~50 engineers) used Airflow and Astronomer (and Spark) to design and run ETL and model training DAGs. In many cases, we needed to do a lot of processing of flat files provided by third parties into our data warehouse. We also had some pipelines to export data to vendors that we used. Airflow helped us manage dependencies between pipelines, as well as monitor and debug pipelines. Disclaimer: IANADataEngineer
If the answer is similar to:
1️⃣ ASAP
2️⃣ Minimal
3️⃣ Divorced
4️⃣ We can't
5️⃣ Less than 5
Then your first step shouldn't be building an ML platform, it should be developing models or ML-drive product features using the simplest, tried & true patterns possible.

Now I’ve been here a few weeks, found the fire exits, amenities and snacks, I should probably add an #introduction post.

So I'm hiring for a role in my team and got my first batch of (thankfully shortlisted) CVs from our HR team today. I don't mind the recruitment process - I love speaking to new people and talking about their stories & experience, it's really exciting. But hoo boy, working my way through a list of mostly badly written PDFs is a grind. 😪
As a hiring manager, a token piece of advice for any job hunters out there - please make your CV skimmable! I'm mainly looking for critical keywords related to the role. ⌨️ Try using dotpoints with the relevant words bolded that explained what you did. Remove ALL of the waffly sentences; leave (some of) the waffle for the interview. Less is more.
All that said, if you have a bit of #DataEngineering experience, you're in Australia and looking for a junior role, DM me! 😃 I'll definitely enjoy a conversation on Mastodon more than skimming through a sanitised resume.
