If you're interested in learning more about dlt, we will have another workshop with them as a part of our LLM Zoomcamp

📢 Join us for the "Open source data ingestion for RAGs with dlt" Event!
🎙️ Speaker: Akela Drissner
🗓️ Date: Monday, July 8
🕟 Time: 4:30 PM (CET)

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll learn how to build a data ingestion pipeline using dlt to load data from a REST API into LanceDB so you can have an always up-to-date RAG.

We will use Kestra as the orchestrator in module 2 in the new edition of the course

Kesta is a great tool with intuitive UI and pleasant user experience

They also support our course and our community and we are very thankful for that!

Right now they're launching on Product Hunt, so let's also support them and give them an upvote:

Hi everyone!

Today we're starting module 2 - we will learn about workflow orchestration and Kestra

Materials: https://github.com/DataTalksClub/data-engineering-zoomcamp/tree/main/02-workflow-orchestration
Homework: https://github.com/DataTalksClub/data-engineering-zoomcamp/blob/main/cohorts/2025/02-workflow-orchestration/homework.md

Have fun! Enjoy learning!

Hi everyone!

We have scored homework 1. You can find your score in the course management system. The leaderboard is also updated

Update regarding the schedule:

- we continue with module 2 till Wednesday
- we start module 3 on Thursday (but you can start already now if you want) and end on Wednesday the week after
- the workshop with dlt will happen on February 10 and then you'll have time to work on it

From our experience, module 3 is relatively easy compared to previous ones, so you should be able to catch up with both module 3 and workshop. We don't plan to extend the deadline for module 3 to make sure you can also catch up with the workshop

Tomorrow at 17:00 Berlin time we have office hours with Will

We will quickly go over frequent problems and then answer your questions

You can ask your questions in advance here: https://app.sli.do/event/aFZgu1o3nbgJTyX1AH1dtF

The questions should be about workflow orchestration or Kestra

See you tomorrow!

We're starting in one hour!
