The Data Engineering Show is a podcast for data engineering and BI practitioners to go beyond theory, and learn from the biggest influencers in tech about their practical day to day data challenges and solutions in a casual and fun setting.
SEASON 1 DATA BROS Eldad and Boaz Farkash shared the same stuffed toys growing up as well as a big passion for data. After founding Sisense and building it to become a high-growth analytics unicorn, they moved on to their next venture, Firebolt, a high-performance cloud data warehouse serving some of the world’s most advanced tech companies.
SEASON 2 DATA BROS In season 2 Eldad adopted a brilliant new little brother, and with their shared love for query processing, the connection was immediate. After excelling in his MS, Computer Science degree, Benjamin Wagner joined Firebolt to lead its query processing team and is a rising star in the data space.
Software dev/engineer get paid more than data engineers, have a clearer career path, more opportunity to grow into other roles like SRE/Architecture/product/project management. It offers much better opportunity
I respect Joe Reis for his "thought leadership" but he's SO unlikeable. it's exhausting to listen to him bitch about everything with no actual mention of solutions. everyone else was great tho!
I understand that the guy on the bottom was annoying, I get it. But the main interviewer is just a wee bit too inexperienced and young to ask the right questions, so the other guy provided context. It was annoying, but needed. If the third wheel wasn't there lol, that would lead the interviewee to become long winded, backtrack, and explain things in a condescending manner.
You cannot charge the same price to engineers in India when compared to buyers in countries like US or UK. We cannot pay that much for a book (just 1 book). Consider low priced option for us in India. We don't get paid as much and our Gov. robs us of most of our salary and offers shit. so we end up losing a lot of money. Can't pay high price for just 1 book? We are paying hundreds for courses and still don't land up a job. Please inform the authors of this book.
This guy strikes me an egoist and a grifter. He spends a lot of time talking to say very little. You sadly know an industry has come of age when people like this start occupying thought space.
I thought the same… I only have two years of experience but the fast speaking, all of the ‘like like’, jumping from topic to topic and never going deep into any of them, gives me that impression
How to reach out to you with some podcast level questions to ask the guests on your show .. I have some questions that I would love to have a perspective on
Thanks for the information, I am currently junior developer, Recently, I got interested into data science field... During my free time I am parallely learning data concepts.. I hope very soon I will transition my career and land a dream job as data engineer.
Max's comment about "what we need from databases for the next wave of highly data centric apps" is a super interesting topic. There's activity in the ecosystem now where they're realizing that we need data-friendly interfaces to complex data systems and data problems. Materialize (from materializeInc) is a good example of that.
Great content! I have a question. In the video, you guys said that most of your guests opt to use AWS as their cloud platform. What would be the reasons for this preference over Azure or Google Cloud?
