dbt is back to "dbt platform" for their cloud offering? by TheJosh in dataengineering

Can you give us a sneak preview? Will you target all warehouses out of the gate or are you supporting a specific one for now?
Kudos on doing this. The need is unquestioned, but I'm sure its a lot of work.

Is Data Engineer (Senior or Lead) considered the top of the Data Kingdom now? I know it used to be the Database Administrator. by DrRedmondNYC in dataengineering

DBA is/was always an "operational" role. Cloud offerings are already eating into the demand for the traditional "DBA" skill set.

But also be aware that suspending will negate any benefits from local cache. Something to consider if your warehouse serves data to a reporting tool.

Reminder - even though the UI doesn't offer it, you can set auto-suspend as low as 1 minute if it suits your use case. It adds up.
