A practical introduction to data engineering on the powerful Snowflake cloud data platform. Data engineers create the pipelines that ingest raw data, transform it, and funnel it to the analysts and professionals who need it. The Snowflake cloud data platform provides a suite of productivity-focused tools and features that simplify building and maintaining data pipelines. In Snowflake Data Engineering, Snowflake Data Superhero Maja Ferle shows you how to get started. In Snowflake Data Engineering you will learn how to: - Ingest data into Snowflake from both cloud and local file systems
- Transform data using functions, stored procedures, and SQL
- Orchestrate data pipelines with streams and tasks, and monitor their execution
- Use Snowpark to run Python code in your pipelines
- Deploy Snowflake objects and code using continuous integration principles
- Optimize performance and costs when ingesting data into Snowflake Snowflake Data Engineering reveals how Snowflake makes it easy to work with unstructured data, set up continuous ingestion with Snowpipe, and keep your data safe and secure with best-in-class data governance features. Along the way, you'll practice the most important data engineering tasks as you work through relevant hands-on examples. Throughout, author Maja Ferle shares design tips drawn from her years of experience to ensure your pipeline follows the best practices of software engineering, security, and data governance. Foreword by Joe Reis. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF and ePub formats from Manning Publications. About the technology Pipelines that ingest and transform raw data are the lifeblood of business analytics, and data engineers rely on Snowflake to help them deliver those pipelines efficiently. Snowflake is a full-service cloud-based platform that handles everything from near-infinite storage, fast elastic compute services, inbuilt AI/ML capabilities like vector search, text-to-SQL, code generation, and more. This book gives you what you need to create effective data pipelines on the Snowflake platform. About the book Snowflake Data Engineering guides you skill-by-skill through accomplishing on-the-job data engineering tasks using Snowflake. You'll start by building your first simple pipeline and then expand it by adding increasingly powerful features, including data governance and security, adding CI/CD into your pipelines, and even augmenting data with generative AI. You'll be amazed how far you can go in just a few short chapters! What's inside - Ingest data from the cloud, APIs, or Snowflake Marketplace
- Orchestrate data pipelines with streams and tasks
- Optimize performance and cost About the reader For software developers and data analysts. Readers should know the basics of SQL and the Cloud.
