Long Bui Knowledge Continuum

Quick look

In my day job, I’m a data engineer and writer passionate about building scale-able data systems. I grew up fascinated by how information flows and how we can use data to make better decisions.

My focus is on designing and implementing modernized data platforms, bridging the gap between engineering and analysis. I work with such open-source and cloud technologies to bring data pipelines, real-time streaming, and machine learning workflows into production.

Over the years, I have worked on various data engineering projects, helping organizations build automated ELT workflows, modern data warehouses, and data governance solutions. I also enjoy writing technical content, sharing my experiences, and contributing to the data community through open-source projects DataPods, blogs, and Data Engineering Handbook.

I’m actively exploring serverless data platforms and their impact on modern data engineering. My recent work includes StringX (failed), an open data learning toolkit, and DataPods, an initiative to enable the Modern Open-Source Data Stack.

I strongly believe in continuous learning and sharing knowledge. Through my Data Engineering Handbook and various online resources, I help engineers navigate the evolving data landscape. I also engage with the community through meet-up, technical talks, and coaching.

About the failed project

I don’t hesitate to talk about the failure in development…

  • With StringX, I was trying to enable data expert to use the SaaS for easier doing data works such as data ingestion, data transformation, and data analytics. It was a great idea, but it was not a good idea to build a SaaS for data engineering. I failed because I lack of knowledge about the world that many principal engineering TEAM(s) are working on. It is the Market Research Failure ?, yes it could be, but I was exploring and making a lot of mistakes. But it’s fine, I learned a lot from it and worth it.
