E-Books →Driving Data Quality with Data Contracts

Key Features:Understand data contracts and their power to resolving the problems in contemporary data platformsLearn how to design and implement a cutting-edge data platform powered by data contractsAccess practical guidance from the pioneer of data contracts to get expert insights on effective utilization
Book Description:
Despite the passage of time and the evolution of technology and architecture, the challenges we face in building data platforms persist. Our data often remains unreliable, lacks trust, and fails to deliver the promised value.
With Driving Data Quality with Data Contracts, you'll discover the potential of data contracts to transform how you build your data platforms, finally overcoming these enduring problems. You'll learn how establishing contracts as the interface allows you to explicitly assign responsibility and accountability of the data to those who know it best-the data generators-and give them the autonomy to generate and manage data as required. The book will show you how data contracts ensure that consumers get quality data with clearly defined expectations, enabling them to build on that data with confidence to deliver valuable analytics, performant ML models, and trusted data-driven products.
By the end of this book, you'll have gained a comprehensive understanding of how data contracts can revolutionize your organization's data culture and provide a competitive advantage by unlocking the real value within your data.
What You Will Learn:Gain insights into the intricacies and shortcomings of today's data architecturesUnderstand exactly how data contracts can solve prevalent data challengesDrive a fundamental transformation of your data culture by implementing data contractsDiscover what goes into a data contract and why it's importantDesign a modern data architecture that leverages the power of data contractsExplore sample implementations to get practical knowledge of using data contractsEmbrace best practices for the successful deployment of data contracts
