dbt and Starburst: better together – Datanova 2023

The mission of dbt Labs is to “empower data practitioners to create and disseminate organizational knowledge”. They believe this is best accomplished using dbt, which enables SWE best practices on top of a data platform that provides a central location for data professionals to get their work done. Starburst Galaxy accomplishes this regardless of where the data “lives”.
In this off-the-cuff session, Anders Swanson, Partner Engineer at dbt Labs will:
– quickly share dbt fundamentals,
– make the case that data work is software engineering work
– showcase the power couple of dbt and Starburst
