Trying to figure out my place in tech
Learning, building, and sharing my path in data

[Venkateshwaran Venkatachalam @PathOfVenky]

Hi, I’m Venkat!
This is where I share my journey into tech:
-Learning Python & SQL
-Exploring cloud & data pipelines
-Exploring data engineering tools & cloud
-Sharing what I learn along the way

->Documenting my journey as I grow & build

[Venkateshwaran Venkatachalam @PathOfVenky]

Learning Azure Fundamentals for Data Engineering. I believe the the UI is better than AWS!

[Venkateshwaran Venkatachalam @PathOfVenky]

I am done with my Capstone project! I didn't wanna use the traditional ETL pipeline, instead I chose medallion architecture.
Medallion architecture is flexible and allows a clear path for data validation.

Starting my morning by working on my ongoing Capstone project! Data engineering is more than just using tools it's filled with fundamentals and business outcome optimization and reasoning.

Finished a hands-on dbt project with Databricks—set up env, connected to a SQL Warehouse, built Bronze→Silver→Gold models, declared sources, wrote Jinja macros, added seeds, tests (generic/custom/singular), and snapshots. Thanks to @AnshLambaJSR tutorial. #dbt #Databricks

@AskMagendran @Snowflake Definitely, @AskMagendran . I will ping you.

[Venkateshwaran Venkatachalam @PathOfVenky]

Attended Zero to Snowflake with James DuHart today.
Hands-on labs helped me explore:
• Data warehousing
• Automated pipelines
• Data Governance
• Snowflake Cortex AI

A great starting point for my #Snowflake journey.
Thank you, @Snowflake, for hosting this online workshop.
