Description
<p>In this episode, I sit down with Mark Freeman and Chad Sanderson (Gable.ai) to discuss the release of their new O’Reilly book, Data Contracts: Developing Production-Grade Pipelines at Scale. They dive deep into the chaotic journey of writing a 350-page book while simultaneously building a venture-backed startup.</p><p>The conversation takes a sharp turn into the evolution of Data Contracts.

They argue that software engineers are facing a "Data Lake Moment, "prioritizing speed over craftsmanship, resulting in massive technical debt and integration failures.</p><p><br /></p><p>Gable: https://www.gable.ai/</p>
