I’m continuing the theme of #Hacktoberfest this week with another link on contributing to open source down the bottom.

Following a brilliant Hacktoberfest Scotland on Saturday 10th Oct, I’ve been in an out of some open-source projects this past week lining up some repos I want to contribute to for Hacktoberfest while preparing for the DataWeekender conference this coming Saturday, so it’s a short (and late) post today.

Last week we had SQLBits running, virtually, from Tuesday through Saturday.

With a well-timed (but much needed) holiday last week I’m just catching up with all the exciting announcements and news coming out of Microsoft’s Ignite conference.

As a change of pace this week, while I study for the DP-201 exam I’ve been browsing some different content outside of my data engineering bubble.

This week’s posts have a bit of a theme around Delta Lake with another video walk through from Simon Whiteley and a complimentary post from Ron L’Esteve.

This past week I’ve been digging about in Azure Databricks and Delta lake while doing some last minute study for Microsoft’s DP-200 exam which I sat, and passed on Monday.

I find inspiration, solutions and ideas from blog posts and videos that the data, and wider tech community have taken the time to create and share.
