Ciro Greco, Co-founder and CEO of Bauplan, discusses revolutionizing data engineering by applying software principles like version control and transactional pipelines to data lakes. He highlights the unique challenges of data work, such as scale and fragmentation, and introduces a git-like branching model for enhanced reproducibility. Ciro emphasizes the importance of transactional guarantees, especially for automated agents, and advocates for a code-first approach to enable safe and efficient interactions with data platforms.

Ciro Greco, Co-founder and CEO of Bauplan, dives into the future of data infrastructure with a focus on a 'Code-First' approach. He explains how traditional data stacks fail autonomous AI agents and why a programmable lakehouse is vital. Ciro introduces 'Git for Data' semantics, detailing how features like branching and transactionality create safe environments for agents to work without corrupting production data. He also shares insights on the evolving roles of data teams and the growing need for principled controls amid increasing automation.
