S1 - 53 | Build a little, test a little, learn a lot with Christopher Bergh

You can’t talk to your stakeholders if your pipelines are down. You can't get good quality sleep if your data products brake in the middle of the night. You can't earn the trust of your stakeholders if it takes you weeks to make even the smallest change without braking things.

Today I learn about DataOps from Christopher Bergh CEO and Head Chef at DataKitchen. Chris has more than 25 years of research, software engineering, data analytics, and executive management experience.

Chris is a recognized expert on DataOps. He is the co-author of the ‘DataOps Cookbook” and the “DataOps Manifesto,” and a speaker on DataOps at many industry conferences. At various points in his career, he has been a COO, CTO, VP, and Director of engineering. Chris has an M.S. from Columbia University and a B.S. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
