An Itch That Just Has to Be Scratched… (Or, Why Am I Joining Decodable?)

This week I joined Decodable. I’m grateful to my former colleagues at Treeverse for allowing me to join them on the journey with lakeFS - but something about the streaming world was too strong to resist 😁.

Why Do We Need Streaming ETL?

(This is an expanded version of the intro to an article I posted over on the Confluent blog. Here I get to be as verbose as I like ;)) My first job from university was building a datawarehouse for a retailer in the UK. Back then, it was writing COBOL jobs to load tables in DB2. We waited for all the shops to close and do their end of day system processing, and send their data back to the central mainframe.
