Modern organizations leverage machine learning, data science, and AI to build predictive, responsive, and personalized applications. BUT! Most are bad at counting things. That’s where dbt comes in. dbt is an open source framework used to define, test, and document datasets. In this talk, we will discuss the what, why, and how behind dbt and data warehousing in the year 2021.

This talk is part of the Vaccination Database (Second Dose) Tech Talk Seminar Series.
