Join us for another exciting event at the Software Architecture Cape Town Meetup group!
After the first two events focused on cloud architecture, this event will be about software architecture applied to data engineering and AI. Looking forward to seeing all of you there!
Title:
Unraveling Data Engineering Architecture and Its Role in AI
Abstract:
As data volumes and user counts within data-driven software systems experience exponential growth, the necessity of acquainting oneself with data engineering and its associated concepts becomes relevant to all software engineers. Additionally, the surge in AI innovations with its strong reliance on data has heightened the significance of the field as a realm of understanding even more.
In this talk we’ll explore what data engineering is, why it is relevant to AI, and delve into its foundational architectural concepts. These include, amongst other, distributed data processing, data ingestion, workflow orchestration, data pipelines, data lakes, and data warehouses.
Moreover, we will navigate through a practical case study that exemplifies an AI-specific data engineering architecture. Through this, we aim to elucidate the interplay of the various architectural components and their relationships.
