Really well done! The content looks like a great balance. I'm an engineer working a bit in data engineering, and I find the content of the book relevant to me.

Really well done! The content looks like a great balance. I'm an engineer working a bit in data engineering, and I find the content of the book relevant to me. I like how you explain why the methodologies of the pre-cloud era still have lessons learned to apply to today, but implementation best practices have changed thanks to the cost model of the cloud. The section that stood out the most to me, strangely, was not anything to do with the technology or analytics stack. It was in Chapter 3 – Data Modeling Layer and Concepts where you discuss the dynamic between the CEO and the data analyst and the data. This really articulated quite well how our own dynamic functions at our current company. Even with our current data warehouse, our BI team is a bottleneck, and it is something becoming more and more apparent to me. It is my primary motivation in seeking out how best to re-architect our analytics stack.
