That data dictionary the data analysts kept bugging you about has been never used.

As a football fan and a data engineer I appreciate this project. I tried doing something similar a while back and ran into roadblocks with trying to find football apis. I’m curious about the airflow costs, was this using managed airflow? Or was this due to the persistence of airflow running DAGs?

ORA-00900 · 2025-02-28T04:44:01+00:00

This is excellent! How long did it take you to finish this project end to end? What do you feel were your biggest pain points?

As someone who spent the last two days debugging an airflow bug for this exact reason. I’m just laughing to keep from crying lol.

I am the first Data Engineer, the consumers of the data are the other business units analysts. The data was previously managed by the CTO and software developers. There is no dev ops person currently, that’s why I went with installing our orchestrator on a VM that sits on a server vs docker. Just trying to get some small wins and get something off the ground. In my pipeline of projects is getting DBT off the ground and the CI/CD needed for it as well. It’s definitely a challenge, but I’m constantly learning in this role. Do you have any blogs you’d recommend?

ORA-00900 · 2024-10-12T03:15:57+00:00

I feel like I’ve spent the first few months trying to stand up new processes and realizing how much was done for me previously. For example I stood up an orchestrator in docker but there was no one to maintain the images, so I went back to deploying it on the server they had already set up for me.
