As organizations increasingly adopt modern data stacks, the combination of dbt and AWS Analytics services emerged as a powerful pairing for analytics engineering at scale. This session will explore proven strategies and hard-learned lessons for optimizing this technology stack to use dbt-athena, dbt-redshift, and dbt-glue to deliver reliable, performant data transformations. We will also cover case studies, best practices, and modern lakehouse scenarios with Apache Iceberg and Amazon S3 Tables.

AI is transforming data teams - maybe you're anxious, excited, or kind of bummed. I'll share how I went from AI skeptic to enthusiast, how analytics engineering is evolving, and how data teams can finally deliver on promises we've been making for years.
