Steppingstones to my Data Engineering Skills
To become a successful Data Scientist, I started with an interesting “Data Science Bootcamp” almost a month ago. Here, in this article, I would like to share with you my recent learning experience while in a project, I was “automating the data pipeline on the cloud”; although I would try to be as less technical as possible, I would be descriptive enough so you can digest the “basic art” behind it and learn something.
