Agenda:

Git for Data:

Distributed version control systems - such as Git - unlock software development in multi-player mode: devs can safely work over the same code base, with standard (albeit perhaps not user-friendly!) abstractions for snapshotting, time-travel, & branching. Data folks have rarely been so lucky, as their projects crucially depend on data, whose life-cycle management is often cumbersome & custom. In this talk, we present open formats - such as Apache Iceberg - to practitioners with limited to zero exposure to modern cloud infrastructure. In particular, we show how moving from datasets to tables unlocks a similar multi-player mode when building data pipelines, with equivalent abstractions for snapshotting, time-travel, branching, & a unified backbone for pipelines, data science, & AI use cases.
