dbt Core vs dbt Platform: Modern Data Transformation with dbt (Part 1)
dbt Core and the dbt Platform use the same transformation engine but differ in deployment, governance, and operational approach. This blog explores where dbt fits in the modern data stack, the strengths of each option, and how teams can choose the right solution based on size, maturity, and workflow requirements.
On-Demand dbt Execution: Rethinking Analytics Engineering in Secure Cloud Environments
In secure enterprise cloud environments, traditional dbt deployment models can introduce unnecessary cost, security risk, and operational friction. This blog explores an on-demand, containerised dbt execution model that treats dbt as an ephemeral workload rather than a long-running service. Orchestrated with AWS MWAA and backed by ECS Fargate, the approach enables scalable, secure analytics transformations while improving cost efficiency, data quality observability, and CI/CD integration in modern enterprise data lakes.
