What you will be able to do
- Name the twelve-factor principles that map onto pipeline jobs
- Treat config, backing services, logs, and disposability as shared vocabulary
- Connect the methodology to the data engineering lifecycle
- Run a design review using the six sources' own claims
- Assign each format its lane and each job its twelve-factor vocabulary
- Know where to look when a claim needs verification
