The Long Game How to Build the Right Data Workflow with Blake Burch (Shipyard)
There’s a lot of monotonous development work that goes into building solutions.
Blake Burch wants to relieve some of that burden for developers and help them waste less time on unnecessary tasks.
Blake co-founded Shipyard, a data orchestration platform, to give data engineers the tools to quickly launch, monitor, and share resilient data workflows.
He talked to us about the importance of inter-tool communication, how Shipyard is working to improve the developer experience, and why you shouldn’t focus on your infrastructure.
