brittany bennettit should not be be this difficult to learn data engineering. there are so many resources for learning SQL. and for leaning Python. and courses for becoming an analyst or analytics engineer. but i find there’s a dearth of resources for mastering the best practices for data engineering — common patterns, pagination, working with APIs. i can’t be the only one
Andrew Meredith@thebbennett Definitely not the only one! I'm new(-ish) to data engineering proper, and I'm still trying to figure out what is and is not DE. It seems like it is a fairly broad discipline that is more focused on bringing together DBA, DevOps, software engineering, and analytics than on introducing brand new practices.
If you figure it out, let me know!
