Roadmap

Foundations, then the craft

Start with Linux, then Docker and Compose, then Python, SQL, and Git. Data Engineering comes after that spine. Linux and Docker are ready to take today.

Foundations

The environment and languages you will use before pipelines and warehouses.

  1. 01

    Ready

    Linux fundamentals

    The terminal, files, logs, pipes, and the skills you will use on every data machine.

  2. 02

    Ready

    Docker and Compose

    Images, containers, volumes, and Compose files for local data stacks.

  3. 03

    Coming soon

    Python

    Virtualenvs, the CLI, files as data, and notebooks as files.

  4. 04

    Coming soon

    SQL

    Query the warehouse. This is the daily language of data work.

  5. 05

    Coming soon

    Git

    Version control for scripts, notebooks, and pipeline code.

Data Engineering

Move data, keep it correct, and run it on a schedule. Coming after foundations.

  1. 01

    Coming soon

    Warehouses and modeling

    Tables, grain, and how analytics databases think.

  2. 02

    Coming soon

    Pipelines and orchestration

    Batch jobs, schedules, and making work reliable.

  3. 03

    Coming soon

    Distributed compute

    Spark and friends — when one machine is not enough.

  4. 04

    Coming soon

    Cloud data platforms

    Object storage, managed warehouses, and identity.
