This project demonstrates the implementation of a comprehensive data pipeline using Google BigQuery as the primary data warehouse solution. The pipeline showcases modern data engineering practices including external data integration, table optimization strategies, and performance tuning techniques.
Repository: Data Pipeline with BigQuery
The project focuses on building a scalable, cost-effective data warehouse solution that can handle large volumes of NYC taxi trip data while maintaining optimal query performance and cost efficiency.
• OLAP vs OLTP: Understanding the fundamental differences between Online Analytical Processing and Online Transaction Processing systems • Data Warehousing: Implementing centralized storage for analytical workloads with optimized query performance • Table Partitioning: Dividing large tables into manageable chunks based on time or range values • Clustering: Organizing data within partitions to improve query performance and reduce costs • External Tables: Querying data stored outside BigQuery without incurring storage costs • Performance Optimization: Implementing best practices for cost reduction and query efficiency
This repository demonstrates workflow orchestration for data engineering pipelines using Kestra. It guides users through building, running, and scheduling data pipelines that extract, transform, and load (ETL) data both locally (with PostgreSQL) and in the cloud (with Google Cloud Platform). The project is hands-on and includes conceptual explanations, infrastructure setup, and several example pipeline flows.
This repository serves as a practical guide to building and orchestrating robust data pipelines using Apache Airflow. It covers essential concepts from basic workflow management to advanced deployments with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Kubernetes.
This repository provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to building a simple data engineering pipeline using containerization (Docker), orchestration (Docker Compose), and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), with a focus on ingesting and processing NYC taxi data. The project is hands-on and includes conceptual explanations, infrastructure setup, and several example pipeline flows.
This project is a practical template for data engineers to learn and implement containerized data pipelines, local and cloud database management, and automated cloud infrastructure provisioning using modern tools like Docker, Docker Compose, and Terraform. It is especially useful for those looking to understand the end-to-end workflow from local prototyping to cloud deployment in a reproducible, automated way.
Data engineering is the backbone of any data-driven organization. In this post, we will explore the fundamental concepts that every aspiring data engineer should understand.
Data engineering focuses on designing, building, and maintaining the infrastructure and architecture for data generation, storage, and analysis. Data engineers develop the systems that collect, manage, and convert raw data into usable information for data scientists and business analysts.
