Petabyte-scale data engineering and cost discipline

An engineering summit session on operating large analytical workloads with stronger efficiency, ownership, and observability.

Talks I value

More than a project recap.

The most useful technical talks do not simply show architecture. They name the tradeoff the team faced, explain why the obvious answer was insufficient, and give the audience a way to recognize the same problem in their own systems.

That is the standard I use when preparing a keynote, conference session, or engineering review.
