Data pipeline automation with built-in metadata and lineage (PRT054)
summary
Conference claim: 95% of teams at or over capacity and an independent survey of 500 data experts finds only 3.5% currently invest in automation while 85% intend to within 12 months. The talk explains flipping imperative ETL scheduling into a declarative control plane (logic/control/data planes), binding code and data with SHA-based fingerprinting to track trillions of records, millions of partitions and thousands of transforms, enabling automated restarts, smart backfills, efficient incremental propagation and mid‑pipeline SHA skips that avoid reprocessing unchanged data.
