We’ll start by creating a YAML-based interface for the data generator to use to create a data contract. Then, using that data contract as the foundation, we’ll provide a few examples of how we can use it to drive our contract-driven architecture.
Firstly, we’ll create a table in our BigQuery data warehouse from the data contract, with a matching schema that will stay in sync with the contract as it evolves. We’ll also introduce an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool to help us build this. Then we’ll look at how ...
