A Guide to Building Efficient Development Workflows
Data teams often face inefficiencies in the develop-test-deploy process, which can be solved with the following Tinybird features:
- Git Integration: Pipe definition files (.pipe) incorporate version control to support collaborative development
- Local development environment: pass (a bill or inspection etc)
tb local startStarting a fully functional Docker container - CI/CD pipeline: Automated test deployment using the CLI:
tb deploy --check
Specific ways to optimize workflow:
- Initialize the Git repository:
tb init --gitAuto-generate .gitignore - Create a development branch:
git checkout -b feature/analytics - Local testing:
tb pipe test user_analysis.pipe --data test_data.csv - Code review and merge to main branch automatically triggers deployment
After a data analytics team adopted this process, the speed of iterations increased from 1 per week to 3 per day, and the error rate dropped by 65%.
This answer comes from the articleTinybird: a platform for rapidly building real-time data analytics APIsThe
