When should I choose ELT over ETL?

Choose ELT for modern cloud data warehouses where you need flexibility and faster loading. ELT allows you to store raw data first and transform it in-place using the target system's compute power.

Does this skill help with Change Data Capture (CDC)?

Yes, it provides patterns for log-based, trigger-based, and timestamp-based CDC to help you capture source changes without full table scans.

How does this skill assist with data quality?

It includes patterns for validation gates, data contracts, and quality checks (like null and range checks) to ensure only clean data reaches your production tables.

Can I use this for real-time data processing?

Yes, the skill covers streaming pipeline architectures and Kappa/Lambda patterns suitable for real-time analytics and event-driven systems.
