Using dbt to manage your data warehouse 2025-11-05 · 18:45 Kobe Thuwis – Data Engineer @ Infofarm In this twofold session, I'll cover how we've used dbt to bring order in heaps of SQL statements used to manage a datawarehouse. I'd like to share how dbt made our team more efficient and our data warehouse more resilient. Secondly, I'll highlight why dbt enabled a way forward on supporting low-code applications: by leveraging our data warehouse as a backend. I'll dive into systemic design, application architecture & data modelling. Tools/tech covered will be SQL, Trino, Outsystems, GIT, Airflow and of course dbt! Expect practical insights, architectural patterns, and lessons learned from a real-world implementation. SQL Trino outsystems Git Airflow dbt
