Notes: Questions and Topics

Announcements

Our major announcement is that the TriPASS 2020 membership survey is open. If you haven’t filled it out, it will be open for the next couple of weeks.

ETL Best Practices

Our big topic was around ETL best practices. We spent quite a bit of time on tooling, processes, ETL vs ELT, and scaling (or lack thereof) in major tools.

Books, Books Everywhere

I showed off my brand-new copy of Itzik Ben-Gan’s T-SQL Window Functions, 2nd Edition. I read the first edition several years back and I’m looking forward to seeing how Itzik has made this even better.

Mala, meanwhile, showed off her copy of Don Jones’s Shell of an Idea, which covers the history of Powershell.
