Abstract: In the new data-driven age, there are two main problems with data integration. First, a data integration framework is difficult to maintain alone. Second, there are too many data sources for a closed source ETL provider to developer quality connectors for. In this talk, we will discuss how an open-source ETL ecosystem directly addresses both of these challenges and why this approach holds the key for the future of data integration.
Bio: Over the last five years Chris has been documenting his journey from living in his car to becoming a developer advocate, with one goal: To help thousands of aspiring developers make it into the tech industry. Chris knows what it feels like to struggle when trying to get your foot in the door with no college degree; but he also knows that there are many people who need someone who can relate to this and provide hope for their future.
He wants to give back by helping others find their own version of success through mentoring and creating content that will help push people to make it to the next level.
