#86 The Ultimate Data Engineering Introduction
The Podcast is back!!!! I promise I am going to keep it up to date this time ;)
In this episode I talk about my newest Data Engineering course. I think it's the ultimate 1 hour 15 minutes introduction to Data Engineering.
There were also a ton of questions from the chat that I answered. Think you really enjoy this.
#085 Big Data and Data Science Landscape plus trying to read Tweets with Nifi
We are looking into the network communication protocol map. I first saw this like 10 years ago and its awesome.
Then we check out the Big Data and Data Science Landscape image. It shows you all the tools available to do data science, machine learning and data engineering. Which is very helpful if you are researching for tools to use.

#061 Reworking My Cookbook For Data Engineering
I decided to rework the cookbook focusing more on case studies and less on explaining tools.
People keep asking me for a path to become a data engineer and, let's be honest, you will never achieve that with just knowledge of the tools.
Finding out how companies do data engineering on their data science platforms is way more useful.
Over the next weeks we will go over each study on my YouTube channel. The stuff we talk about will then go into the cookbook too.

#049 I Found A REAL Use For Blockchain, At Least I thought So
After all the BS solutions using Blockchain I thought I finally found one that makes sense. Of all the possibilities it's the EU data protection law GDPR. Well, one problem I overlooked in this podcast is, that it is impossible to delete data after it is in the chain. That's however a rule for GDPR.
So, I was wrong. Again :D

#035 Learning By Doing Is The Best Thing Ever!
Reading books and learning dry stuff was a drag. I was never good at writing tests.
Some people excel at this. I was often envious.
Over the years I found out what my problem is. I learn differently.
