Rate this book
Build and deploy data pipelines with Alteryx by applying practical DataOps principles

Key FeaturesLearn DataOps principles to build data pipelines with AlteryxBuild robust data pipelines with Alteryx DesignerUse Alteryx Server and Alteryx Connect to share and deploy your data pipelinesBook DescriptionAlteryx is a GUI-based development platform for data analytic applications.

Data Engineering with Alteryx will help you leverage Alteryx's code-free aspects which increase development speed while still enabling you to make the most of the code-based skills you have.

This book will teach you the principles of DataOps and how they can be used with the Alteryx software stack. You'll build data pipelines with Alteryx Designer and incorporate the error handling and data validation needed for reliable datasets. Next, you'll take the data pipeline from raw data, transform it into a robust dataset, and publish it to Alteryx Server following a continuous integration process.

By the end of this Alteryx book, you'll be able to build systems for validating datasets, monitoring workflow performance, managing access, and promoting the use of your data sources.
