Merry Christmas everybody!
I know the news often try to tell us that everything is bad, but actually when you really think about it, everything is great!
Have a great few days with your family and friends.

Livestreams are returning today! We look into five ways of setting up teams to do data science. I do a review of my year 2019 and what's to come. https://youtu.be/HSdklKay2M0

I just prepared a bunch of short clips from live stream 127. I'll release them once a day. Really want to have at least one video a day going up throughout this year. I know not all of you have the time to listen to one hour plus live streams. Haha

A few months ago I was interviewed about Data Engineering for Oracle's AI blog. It was a great opportunity for me to talk about the importance of engineering, that so many people simply overlook.

I talked about:
-The roles of data scientist and engineers in different companies
- Why engineering is so important to deliver scalable products
- What data engineers do
- How to become a data engineer

This article is the result of this interview and I am very happy how it turned out.

Have fun reading and let me know what you think.

Hey everyone, I have some awesome updates!
If you are interested in data science or need corporate services, check this out:

- YouTube Channel Rename
I just renamed my channel to Andreas Kretz (The Plumber of Data Science).
Additional to the Data Engineering content I am going to start making regular videos about my journey of building a business.

- New YouTube Channel: Team Data Science
Here I want to offer live office hours from now on. You can call in with your phone and we talk.
I also want to bring in other creators to create a Data Science Network for Data Scientists, Engineers, Analysts...

- Corporate Data Science Rescue Services
I am now offering two corporate data science services.
A Strategy Rescue Service and a Execution Rescue Service

Exciting times!

Who wants to beta test the new website? I added the free forum and going to offer engineer coaching as well soon. Complete FAQ on the website: https://teamdatascience.com

I'm so bad at sharing content I create.
Totally forgot to notify you of my first vlog on my coaching journey.

Have fun!
I'm going to do these now more often!

Hey guys, just added this best practices section for AWS, Azure and GCP to my Data Engineering Cookbook. Cloud services are very confusing, this section sorts them into comparable categories.

I want to turn the Cookbook into the ultimate helper document for learning data engineering by doing a project.

This way it will be very helpful for everyone in my data engineer coaching, as well as everyone else interested into data engineering.

Hey everyone, we're bringing back the data science office hours streams!
Favio and I are going to do the first stream on around 6 hours!

Hey everyone. Join Favio and me on our next live stream in a few hours on our YouTube channel. This is going to be fun.. Datascienceofficehours.com

@I recently talked data engineering on The Artists of data science podcast. Check it out: https://theartistsofdatascience.fireside.fm/andreas-kretz

Just uploaded big update video on my data engineer journey coaching students and more: https://youtu.be/jWOqvoWoqjo

Because of the spam I switched to this channel: https://t.me/learndataengineering
The old chat group is for comments in the new telegram above

Let me hear in the comments if this is better.

Quick tipp for working with AWS lambda. Here's how to implement you custom Libraries: https://wahlnetwork.com/2020/07/28/how-to-create-aws-lambda-layers-for-python/?utm_source=pocket_mylist

Who else feels like this some days 😂

I was last week in the data career podcast from Avery Smith. He's a really nice guy. We had a great time talking about data engineering: https://youtu.be/OedkkAQ1elE
