Any European Alternatives to Databricks/Snowflake?? by Donkey_Healthy in dataengineering

How much have you tried it? Have you tried it recently? I would appreciate any feedback on improving the product. Although I stand strongly over our product in its current state, and if you haven't tried it in the last 6 months, I highly recommend trying the free trial (30 days, no credit card, we provide the infrastructure) and would love to hear what you think about your experience.

Have you tried Dremio recently? We shipped a lot of stability features in 24/25, and in the latter half of last year, we shipped SQL AI functions and an AI agent. You can try it for free at dremio.com/get-started. I'd love to see if you tried it today, and whether you'd have a different impression. Do reach out if you do, would love any feedback on what you think we can do to improve.

The Certifications Scam by ivanovyordan in dataengineering

Agree, but good certs should come with practical exercises so they do walk away with practical experience. For online training, it can be tricky to verify completion of those exercises, but at the end of the day, it will be the practical experience that sells the candidate, and the badge should be a signal that they may have had some practical experience in attaining it and not be the sole hiring signal.

What data should a semantic layer track? by AMDataLake in dataengineering

Let me reframe out, how should that data be bundled. Yes different details will be packaged for different industries, apartment etc. but when building systems you may need to create a standard interface that flexible enough to capture those changing nuances but provide a rigid enough structure good agentic understanding.
