As Joe Reis recently opined, if you want to know what’s next in data engineering, just look at the software engineer. The MDS-in-a-box pattern has been a game changer for applying software engineering principles to local data development– improving the ability to share data, collaborate on modeling work and data analysis the same way we build and share open source tooling.

This panel brings together experts in data engineering, data analytics and software engineering to explore the current state of the pattern, pieces that remain missing today and how emerging tools and data engineering testing capabilities can refine the transition from local development to production workflows.

Speakers: Matt Housley, CTO, Halfpipe Systems; Mehdi Ouazza, Developer Advocate, MotherDuck; Sung Won Chung, Solutions Engineer, Datafold; Louise de Leyritz, Host, The Data Couch podcast
