Baseball Fans: Heads Up this is Super Cool ! MLB uses Google Cloud, BigQuery & Anthos

Major League Baseball migrates to Google Cloud to develop a unified data plane across its complex operations to drive fan engagement and increase operational efficiency. Just so everybody knows (we have a global audience), Major League Baseball, which is North America’s oldest and most-attended professional sports league, consists of 30 member teams in the United States and Canada.  It is America’s “Past time” and almost everyone loves baseball.   So check this out: “The fundamental goal is fan engagement—to bring baseball to millions of fans and introduce new technology that allows for personalized recommendations and a social viewing experience, where when something happens on the field and you get excited about it, you can share it with other fans. These are the things that really motivate us and Google Cloud has been a great partner in building products that embody those values.”  —Jason Gaedtke, CTO (former), MLBYou can read the full article here. Is this interesting for you?  Wou

Looker

Today, I read this article about Looker:  https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/training-certifications/how-to-use-looker-on-google-cloud-for-data-governanceThe truth is that I haven’t used it, yet. Instead, I have worked with Dataprep for cleaning data and Data Studio for dashboards.Has anyone used it? Let me know what you think about this. And also, if anyone has used Looker and Dataprep to compare them, this would be even better!

Parallel executions with Google Workflows

C2C member, speaker, and France group leader, @guillaume blaquiere wrote this on Medium and I thought it’d be a great article to share for Tips and Best Practices curation. Here’s Guillaume’s intro to the post:Cloud components are useful and powerful. However, they are all disconnected from the others and when you want to deploy a full pipeline, you need to glue them. You can achieve this with PubSub and Cloud Functions.However, it quickly becomes a spaghetti design with a lot of topics and functions. Having a centralized place to see, manage and configure your pipeline workflow could be great! You can read the full article and Guillaume’s tips here: https://medium.com/google-cloud/parallel-executions-with-google-workflows-3a16f8fee0eb
