As someone who works in an enablement team, I’m trying to instil a best practice of answering with docs.

Over on the GoCardless Tech Blog I’ve written a post about how we’re improving data quality with Data Contracts.

Data is at the heart of every meaningful service, and it’s the effective use of that data which builds a product, and a business.

Almost all data platforms start with a change data capture (CDC) service to extract data from an organisations transactional databases - the source of truth for their most valuable data.

We recently had an incident with our data pipeline, resulting in data being lost on route to our data platform.

Inspired by Richard Seroter, I want to publicly share some of the things I’d like to learn this year.

There’s a trend in the industry to make data science and machine learning more accessible, allowing engineers to build and deploy standard models without needing to have a strong data science background.

I’ve been a Tech Lead for a few years now, though I’d say I’ve only been a good Tech Lead for about a year.

As I start to think about some of the upcoming projects we’ll be working on over the next year and how we might go about building them, I wanted to consider where lambda architecture fits in our toolbox for building data services.

Postmortems are a well established process followed in the aftermath of an incident.
