Just came across this new, free book on the basics of enterprise data management. The book does a great job of covering the most important aspects of data management from a data science perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have a hard time fitting all of these tool-focused topics like using Git, CI\/CD, Docker, SSH, OAuth into my course syllabi. <\/span>These are things to know vs. understand and we focus on the latter. But these are absolute must-knows for data workers. This is how models are deployed and optimized for production, which is the only way to make a real impact. So this will be a great quick reference to list.<\/span><\/p>\n

The book is a very practical introduction to (almost) everything that comes after modeling in data science. <\/span>Here’s the intro to data connectors (no offense to data engineers):<\/p>\n

Your job as a data scientist is to sift through a massive pile of data to extract nuggets of real information \u2013 and then use that information. Working at the end of an external process, you must meet the data where it lives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

CI\/CD and Git:<\/p>\n

The role of Git is to make your code promotion process happen. Git allows you to configure requirements for whatever approvals and testing you need. Your CI\/CD tool sits on top of that so that all this merging and branching does something.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

with the footnote:<\/p>\n

Strictly speaking, this is not true. There are a lot of different ways to kick off CI\/CD jobs. But, the right way to do it is to base it on Git operations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I like the tone here (and the drawings). You can check out the book here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
