According to a survey report by ResearchandMarkets.com, the data engineering market is expected to observe growth at a CAGR of 16.3% over the forecast period of 2021-2026. Gartner explains data engineering as “a methodology of making the appropriate data accessible and available to various data consumers (including data scientists, data analysts, business analytics and business users).”
Not a very long time back, merely data storage and processing were dominant challenges. The emergence of the Cloud has transformed both storing and processing of data into assets or commodities. This largely allowed and helped the teams to concentrate on bigger problems such as efficiently handling metadata management, integration of various data systems, tracking, and realizing a high data quality. Today, as more organizations look at modernizing their analytics environments, their use of data engineering to drive better business insights is on the rise.
To understand it in simple words, data engineering involves the task of making raw data used by data scientists and groups in an organization. It also includes a number of specialties of data science. Data engineering also creates an analysis of providing predictive models and exhibit short- and long-term trends.
Data engineers help data scientists and data analysts find the right data, make it accessible in their environment, ensure the data is credible and that sensitive data is hidden, functionalize data engineering pipelines, and also ensure less time is spent on data preparation.
Enterprises must opt for a platform and AI-driven approach for end-to-end data engineering instead of stitching together piecemeal solutions. The platform must also support technologies like cloud, Spark, serverless, and Kafka that have led to the emergence of data engineering.
