Driving actionable insights: How Analytics Engineers can be a data consumers best friend using dbt and Snowflake

See how visual data modeling and dbt combine to improve interaction and understanding between analytics engineering practitioners, product owners, and business partners. We will demonstrate conceptual and logical modeling techniques and diagrams to establish common understanding, enhance business partner collaboration, enhance translation of requirements, and ultimately complement analytics engineering within dbt to improve time to value. Demonstrate how to pair data modeling concepts (conceptual, logical, physical) and tools (SqlDBM) to engage your customers and inform the analytics engineering with dbt and Snowflake. We will show how this workbench and tools complement the analytics lifecycle for engineers and data consumers alike. The workbench includes a dbt, a visual modeling tool, and phData Toolkit CLI.
