DataOps for the Modern Data Warehouse on Microsoft Azure @ NDCOslo 2020 - Lac...

Lace Lofranco

Talk Description: The Modern Data Warehouse architecture is a response to the emergence of Big Data, Machine Learning and Advanced Analytics. DevOps is a key aspect of successfully operationalising a multi-source Modern Data Warehouse. While there are many examples of how to build CI/CD pipelines for traditional applications, applying these concepts to Big Data Analytical Pipelines is a relatively new and emerging area. In this demo heavy session, we will see how to apply DevOps principles to an end-to-end Data Pipeline built on the Microsoft Azure Data Platform with technologies such as Data Factory, Databricks, Data Lake Gen2, Azure Synapse, and AzureDevOps.

Stressed, Depressed, or Burned Out? The Warning Signs You Shouldn't Ignore (S...

Stressed, Depressed, or Burned Out? The Warning Signs You Shouldn't Ignore (Presented at SQLBits on March 18th, 2023) We all experience stress in our lives. When the stress is time-limited and manageable, it can be positive and productive. This kind of stress can help you get things done and lead to personal growth. However, when the stress stretches out over longer periods of time and we are unable to manage it, it can be negative and debilitating. This kind of stress can affect your mental health as well as your physical health, and increase the risk of depression and burnout. The tricky part is that both depression and burnout can hit you hard without the warning signs you might recognize from stress. Where stress barges through your door and yells "hey, it's me!", depression and burnout can silently sneak in and gradually make adjustments until one day you turn around and see them smiling while realizing that you no longer recognize your house. I know, because I've dealt with both. And when I thought I had kicked them out, they both came back for new visits. I don't have the Answers™️ or Solutions™️ to how to keep them away forever. But in hindsight, there were plenty of warning signs I missed, ignored, or was oblivious to at the time. In this deeply personal session, I will share my story of dealing with both depression and burnout. What were the warning signs? Why did I miss them? Could I have done something differently? And most importantly, what can I - and you - do to help ourselves or our loved ones if we notice that something is not quite right?

"I can't keep up!" - Turning Discomfort into Personal Growth in a Fast-Paced World (Presented at SQLBits on March 17th, 2023) Do you sometimes think the world is moving so fast that you're struggling to keep up? Does it make you feel a little uncomfortable? Awesome! That means that you have ambitions. You want to learn new things, take that next step in your career, achieve your goals. You can do anything if you set your mind to it. It just might not be easy. All growth requires some discomfort. You need to manage and balance that discomfort, find a way to push yourself a little bit every day without feeling overwhelmed. In a fast-paced world, you need to know how to break down your goals into smaller chunks, how to prioritize, and how to optimize your learning. Are you ready to turn your "I can't keep up" into "I can't believe I did all of that in just one year"?
