This lesson focuses on increase data discoverability for a financial reporting environment. You will use: pip install pandas sqlalchemy | SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 10 | INSERT INTO logs VALUES (...). The content is designed for practical data engineering execution.
Code Example
# dbt model: fact_financial_reporting
{{ config(materialized='incremental') }}
SELECT
user_id,
event_date,
COUNT(*) as event_count
FROM {{ ref('staging_events') }}
{% if is_incremental() %}
WHERE event_date > (SELECT MAX(event_date) FROM {{ this }})
{% endif %}
GROUP BY 1, 2
-- Run: SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 10Commands & References
- pip install pandas sqlalchemy
- SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 10
- INSERT INTO logs VALUES (...)
Lab Steps
- Prepare environment with: pip install pandas sqlalchemy
- Design or modify the data pipeline for the scenario.
- Validate data quality and document lineage.
- Propose one optimization for production.
Exercises
- Add one data quality check.
- Implement one incremental loading pattern.
- Write a rollback procedure for this pipeline.
