Building robust, production-grade data pipelines goes beyond writing transformation logic — it requires rigorous testing, version control, automated CI/CD workflows and a clear separation between development and production. In this talk, we’ll demonstrate how Lakeflow, paired with Databricks Asset Bundles (DABs), enables Git-based workflows, automated deployments and comprehensive testing for data engineering projects. We’ll share best practices for unit testing, CI/CD automation, data quality monitoring and environment-specific configurations. Additionally, we’ll explore observability techniques and performance tuning to ensure your pipelines are scalable, maintainable and production-ready.
