Part 1:Introduction to Analytics Engineering
The first two chapters present the fundamental ideas supporting analytics engineering and the Modern Data Stack. They highlight how analytics engineers utilize software engineering principles to structure, modify, verify, implement, and document data in a reusable manner, ultimately streamlining team effort and time. Conversely, the Modern Data Stack prioritizes rapid delivery, cost-efficiency, and data accessibility, yet it can result in multiple tools and fragmented data.
