Use it or loose it - an introduction to data engineering in Azure Databricks

The amount of business related data is growing tremendously. But how to get the most out of your data and obtain useful insights instead of only harvesting data and drowning in a data swamp? In this presentation I will provide an introduction in the various aspects of creating an end-to-end data warehouse solution in Azure Databricks. Emphasis will be on the place of the Databricks platform architecture inside Azure, the use of multiple external data sources, data organization strategies, cleaning and preparing data and security while working towards a live report in Power BI.

This introductory session is targeted towards software engineers who like to broaden their horizon and have an interest in data engineering related topics. No previous knowledge from the audience is required.
