Orchestrating Complex Logic with dbt and Snowflake Tasks
dbt is king for T-SQL transformations. But what happens when you need loops, complex dependency management, or non-SQL logic? We explore the hybrid approach.
Airflow vs Prefect: Choosing the Right Orchestrator for 2025
The battle of the Python orchestrators. We compare the industry standard (Airflow) against the modern challenger (Prefect).
Why the Modern Data Stack is More Than Just Tools
Fivetran, dbt, and Snowflake are great, but buying them doesn't make you modern. We explore the mindset shift required for the Modern Data Stack.
Making Pipelines Unbreakable: The Power of Idempotency
If your pipeline crashes halfway through, can you just restart it? If not, you have a problem. We explain why Idempotency is the golden rule of Data Engineering.
Surviving the Shift: Handling Schema Evolution in Production
Data changes. Columns are added, types are modified. If your pipeline can't handle this, it's brittle. Here is how to handle Schema Evolution gracefully.
