Overview of this book

Written by a team of 7 industry experts, Fundamentals of Analytics Engineering will introduce you to everything from foundational concepts to advanced skills to get started as an analytics engineer. After conquering data ingestion and techniques for data quality and scalability, you’ll learn about techniques such as data cleaning transformation, data modeling, SQL query optimization and reuse, and serving data across different platforms. Armed with this knowledge, you will implement a simple data platform from ingestion to visualization, using tools like Airbyte Cloud, Google BigQuery, dbt, and Tableau. You’ll also get to grips with strategies for data integrity with a focus on data quality and observability, along with collaborative coding practices like version control with Git. You’ll learn about advanced principles like CI/CD, automating workflows, gathering, scoping, and documenting business requirements, as well as data governance. By the end of this book, you’ll be armed with the essential techniques and best practices for developing scalable analytics solutions from end to end.

Continuous delivery also involves testing any code change, whether it’s a new feature, bug fix, or experiment, and preparing it for release to a production environment. However, the actual deployment to production in continuous delivery is a manual step, requiring a human decision to make the final push. The goal of continuous delivery is to ensure that software can be reliably released at any time, creating a stable, reliable, and repeatable process for releasing software. The benefits include having a deployable product after every change and more reliable software delivery. This approach also eases the pressure on the decision to release as the product is always ready for deployment.

First, let’s understand how continuous delivery and CD are different.

Continuous delivery versus continuous deployment

Continuous deployment (CD) and continuous delivery, while closely related in the realm of software development, particularly in automated...
