Key benefits

  • Learn DataOps principles to build data pipelines with Alteryx
  • Build robust data pipelines with Alteryx Designer
  • Use Alteryx Server and Alteryx Connect to share and deploy your data pipelines

Description

Alteryx 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.

Who is this book for?

If you’re a data engineer, data scientist, or data analyst who wants to set up a reliable process for developing data pipelines using Alteryx, this book is for you. You’ll also find this book useful if you are trying to make the development and deployment of datasets more robust by following the DataOps principles. Familiarity with Alteryx products will be helpful but is not necessary.

What you will learn

  • Build a working pipeline to integrate an external data source
  • Develop monitoring processes for the pipeline example
  • Understand and apply DataOps principles to an Alteryx data pipeline
  • Gain skills for data engineering with the Alteryx software stack
  • Work with spatial analytics and machine learning techniques in an Alteryx workflow Explore Alteryx workflow deployment strategies using metadata validation and continuous integration
  • Organize content on Alteryx Server and secure user access

This book provides a little bit of everything for all skill levels of Alteryx users. It will guide you through creating your first workflow if you are brand new to the tool to advanced concepts like administrating Alteryx Server, which I found particularly useful, and DataOps concepts. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to level up their Alteryx skills!

The media could not be loaded. Just what the heck is Data Engineering anyway?Crack open this book and you'll find out.I recently finished "Data Engineering with Alteryx" by Paul Houghton, published by #Packt.This book outlines how to take your data from zero to hero with Alteryx and other platforms:1. Input of data from external sources, databases and APIs to other source systems2. Repeatable processes in #Alteryx like data cleansing, ETL, data profiling, and transformation,3. Output to destinations, whether that's a database management system like #Snowflake, a BI platform like #Tableau, or using Alteryx's underrated system of generated automated reports and visualizations on prem.The book presents these processes through the lens of the DataOps process, and uses that process to prescribe best practices for management of the data itself as well as workflows that can get a bit messy in a team environment.This isn't a catch-all book for beginners, spelling out how to use basic Alteryx functions.If you need that, go to the Alteryx community. The Core cert training path will take you right up to the point where this book will be tremendously useful to you.Highly recommend this book as a guideline to operationalize your use of Alteryx and Alteryx Server!

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
