📅 2025-09-04 — Session: Designed ETL and Data Processing Frameworks

🕒 21:35–23:00
🏷️ Labels: ETL, Data Processing, Architecture, Modular Design, Machine Learning
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal:

The session aimed to design and outline frameworks for ETL and data processing systems, focusing on modular, evergreen, and decoupled architectures.

Key Activities:

  • Proposed a mapping of playbooks and clusters to improve data management, including corrections and missing IDs.
  • Outlined a Jupyter notebook for ETL workflows related to poverty metrics, covering environment setup, data preprocessing, and QA visualization.
  • Reflected on ETL flows for data transformation from household surveys and census data, considering robustness and scalability.
  • Planned the transformation of traditional ETL systems into evergreen systems, emphasizing automation and data governance.
  • Developed a high-level overview of a decoupled production architecture, detailing repositories, orchestration, and CI/CD processes.
  • Designed a modular architecture for data processing and machine learning, focusing on extensibility and evergreen lifecycle.
  • Described tools for poverty research in Argentina, including eph-extractor, censo-sampler, poverty-etl, and poverty-ml.

Achievements:

  • Established a comprehensive framework for ETL and data processing, integrating modern practices like modular design and evergreen systems.
  • Enhanced the strategic direction for data management and processing, aligning with personal branding efforts in the data science domain.

Pending Tasks:

  • Implementation of the proposed ETL and data processing frameworks.
  • Further exploration of automation and governance strategies for evergreen systems.
