7 00:01:42.800 00:01:44.100 Awaish Kumar: How’s everything in the hall?

8 00:01:45.080 00:01:56.810 Mustafa Raja: Yeah… it’s… it’s good, it’s good. I just… the EQA… the EQA’s still not good enough, so I… I went out this weekend, and…

9 00:01:57.130 00:02:03.479 Mustafa Raja: it caught my throat. Again, Yeah, I’m… I got… I got really bad cough.

10 00:02:03.700 00:02:06.069 Mustafa Raja: So, EQI is really an issue.

11 00:02:08.169 00:02:13.399 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, it’s… It’s going to be like this for a few weeks, still for a few.

12 00:02:13.400 00:02:14.170 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

13 00:02:14.620 00:02:21.110 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I just wish it rains, so the air quality gets a little better.

14 00:02:23.090 00:02:25.549 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, we are going to have Basand over here, you know?

15 00:02:26.820 00:02:28.239 Awaish Kumar: Hey, aye.

16 00:02:30.020 00:02:33.329 Awaish Kumar: I haven’t actually celebrated, but I… I just know that.

17 00:02:33.550 00:02:43.359 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I used to when I was a lot younger, so, like, around 8, 9, and after that it got banned. But now it’s…

18 00:02:44.610 00:02:47.260 Mustafa Raja: I don’t… I don’t endorse it, to be honest.

19 00:02:50.680 00:02:51.390 Awaish Kumar: But…

20 00:02:51.390 00:02:52.320 Mustafa Raja: It is what it is, I guess.

21 00:02:52.320 00:02:52.720 Awaish Kumar: Hello.

22 00:02:53.570 00:02:56.300 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, on the bushunt also, there will be a lot of…

23 00:02:57.110 00:02:58.930 Awaish Kumar: Like, incidents and all of that.

24 00:02:58.930 00:03:01.370 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t like that.

25 00:03:03.120 00:03:04.140 Awaish Kumar: I actually…

26 00:03:04.140 00:03:06.569 Mustafa Raja: I don’t think… I don’t think it’s worth the risk, you know.

27 00:03:08.810 00:03:09.440 Mustafa Raja: Hey.

28 00:03:09.440 00:03:10.180 Awaish Kumar: How you doing?

29 00:03:10.580 00:03:12.570 Ashwini Sharma: I’m good, man. How are you guys?

30 00:03:12.980 00:03:14.100 Awaish Kumar: Doing good.

31 00:03:16.400 00:03:17.120 Ashwini Sharma: Oh…

32 00:03:18.640 00:03:21.500 Mustafa Raja: I think the Milar is, out of her facility.

33 00:03:22.000 00:03:29.170 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, damage of… So, I hope the… Same as the last time.

34 00:03:29.360 00:03:32.290 Awaish Kumar: You will be covering, as a…

35 00:03:32.430 00:03:36.230 Awaish Kumar: as a backup for… as a CSO for him, for today.

36 00:03:37.400 00:03:46.479 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, please check out any time comms, if you have to do, or, like, end-of-date Slack updates and… and things like that.

37 00:03:46.670 00:03:52.400 Awaish Kumar: And, yeah, escalate if there is anything which… which, which you don’t know, or…

38 00:03:53.240 00:04:04.370 Awaish Kumar: whatever, like, something you think it’s escalated, just let us know. Yeah, we can start off with Magic Spoon, Ashwini, yeah.

39 00:04:04.370 00:04:07.670 Ashwini Sharma: Magic Spoon, right, I’ll just provide an update,

40 00:04:08.110 00:04:17.569 Ashwini Sharma: The QA thing required more attributes, and I had to run the pipeline to add more attributes, but again, like, the pipeline starts to fail abruptly, right?

41 00:04:17.839 00:04:21.850 Ashwini Sharma: And, like, I tried multiple times since yesterday.

42 00:04:22.040 00:04:33.940 Ashwini Sharma: It kind of runs for about 2 hours or so, and then kind of fails after that, right? And then I lose the data, or the progress, because, like, with the framework that… that is there.

43 00:04:34.480 00:04:47.689 Ashwini Sharma: it does not support the kind of load that ideally should be there, right? So, I think that would be a different project at all, if we have to support such kind of loads. Yeah, but the thing is, like, I have a call today with Michael.

44 00:04:47.690 00:04:52.200 Awaish Kumar: Can… can I have some context on this? What is… actually, this is about?

45 00:04:52.900 00:05:00.499 Ashwini Sharma: So, this is about, Spins data, okay? So, Spins is a GraphQL API. It’s, it’s a…

46 00:05:00.720 00:05:05.079 Ashwini Sharma: SaaS solution, yeah, it provides a GraphQL API from where you extract the data.

47 00:05:05.560 00:05:12.919 Awaish Kumar: like, we build a data pipeline to move the data from Spin’s API to Warehouse.

48 00:05:12.920 00:05:16.250 Ashwini Sharma: Right, yeah. Now, the data volume is huge, okay?

49 00:05:16.440 00:05:16.820 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

50 00:05:16.820 00:05:35.540 Ashwini Sharma: So earlier, what I had done was I… they had presented one Excel sheet where there were, like, around 20 attributes or so for which we had to fetch the data. And I had fetched for those 20 things, and then it worked fine, right? But when they are doing the QA, it’s… it’s a lot more than 20.

51 00:05:35.820 00:05:36.850 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, so…

52 00:05:36.850 00:05:37.220 Awaish Kumar: So…

53 00:05:37.220 00:05:40.800 Ashwini Sharma: Now I have to fetch for the other attributes also, right? More than 20.

54 00:05:41.190 00:05:46.910 Ashwini Sharma: And that’s where the pipeline started to fail, because the data volume is huge, and after.

55 00:05:46.910 00:05:47.530 Awaish Kumar: Sometime…

56 00:05:47.530 00:05:49.789 Ashwini Sharma: It just, yeah, go ahead.

57 00:05:49.790 00:05:52.039 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, let me summarize it in a…

58 00:05:52.350 00:05:57.940 Awaish Kumar: Like, so, we built a pipeline for 20 attributes, and it was working fine.

59 00:05:57.940 00:06:00.760 Ashwini Sharma: And now they have asked for more data, right?

60 00:06:00.760 00:06:03.619 Awaish Kumar: And when we are trying to fix that, pipeline is failing.

61 00:06:04.390 00:06:10.040 Ashwini Sharma: Yes, yes, that, that is in a nutshell.

62 00:06:10.540 00:06:11.949 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, and .

63 00:06:11.950 00:06:12.450 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah.

64 00:06:12.450 00:06:13.530 Awaish Kumar: So… You’re not.

65 00:06:13.980 00:06:14.770 Ashwini Sharma: Slutty.

66 00:06:14.770 00:06:15.849 Awaish Kumar: Is that the problem?

67 00:06:16.230 00:06:17.140 Ashwini Sharma: Am I audible?

68 00:06:18.340 00:06:20.800 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, you are audible. My question is, like.

69 00:06:20.910 00:06:30.180 Awaish Kumar: Did I understand it correctly, that while we are trying to get new, more fields, we are, like, we are getting some kind of out-of-memory error, or something like that?

70 00:06:30.180 00:06:41.980 Ashwini Sharma: Right. Not exactly out of memory. It does not display the error at all, it just, you know, terminates the container without any logs or anything, and I’m trying to get the logs so badly, but…

71 00:06:42.330 00:06:44.899 Ashwini Sharma: It’s just not there.

72 00:06:45.160 00:06:51.870 Awaish Kumar: Able to, run pipeline in a way that we, split the data, like.

73 00:06:52.250 00:07:09.570 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I’ve done that. I have done that. I have splitted it into smaller chunks of data, and then inserting it into the database, into the warehouse, but after some time, again, like, even with smaller amounts of data, it just goes off, and does not give any hint of why it terminated.

74 00:07:10.670 00:07:15.529 Ashwini Sharma: And yeah, like, while doing this, fixing this.

75 00:07:15.750 00:07:18.079 Ashwini Sharma: I think today I encountered,

76 00:07:18.400 00:07:21.079 Ashwini Sharma: you know, rate limit error from GraphQL.

77 00:07:21.230 00:07:29.029 Ashwini Sharma: Right, so I’ll wait for some time and talk to Michael in the meeting today to see if we can extend the GraphQL limit.

78 00:07:29.390 00:07:33.669 Ashwini Sharma: Or wait for some more time, and then rerun it.

79 00:07:34.490 00:07:41.440 Awaish Kumar: It’s failing abruptly, that means it needs better logging, right? At least we should be able to capture.

80 00:07:41.440 00:07:44.779 Ashwini Sharma: I have done all the logging possible.

81 00:07:44.780 00:07:45.270 Awaish Kumar: That’s good.

82 00:07:45.270 00:07:49.609 Ashwini Sharma: That, you know, we can see it sometime, yeah, we can see it sometime, definitely.

83 00:07:49.610 00:07:50.360 Awaish Kumar: Nice.

84 00:07:50.530 00:07:57.429 Awaish Kumar: Maybe pair… pair on it after the stand-up, or, like, some… sometime today at the end of day, and we can…

85 00:07:57.630 00:07:59.790 Awaish Kumar: basically go over it, like, I’m just…

86 00:08:00.200 00:08:04.380 Awaish Kumar: throwing my ideas, I’m not sure what we’ve tried, but, like, we can go over it.

87 00:08:04.770 00:08:05.779 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, sure, yeah.

88 00:08:05.920 00:08:06.890 Ashwini Sharma: Definitely.

89 00:08:07.010 00:08:09.609 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, so that’s.

90 00:08:10.730 00:08:11.910 Awaish Kumar: How’s it for this?

91 00:08:12.310 00:08:19.559 Ashwini Sharma: So, yeah, again, right, so the way it works is we get weekly data, right, from spins.

92 00:08:19.690 00:08:23.560 Ashwini Sharma: For every week since December.

93 00:08:24.380 00:08:25.370 Ashwini Sharma: till.

94 00:08:25.370 00:08:25.920 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

95 00:08:26.080 00:08:27.449 Awaish Kumar: I’m just asking…

96 00:08:27.450 00:08:30.640 Ashwini Sharma: Oh, okay. Yeah, so basically, like,

97 00:08:32.120 00:08:37.360 Ashwini Sharma: Hold on a second, right? So, that part number 8 is sort of done, okay?

98 00:08:37.480 00:08:40.469 Awaish Kumar: Okay. I’ll talk to Michael today and then confirm.

99 00:08:40.470 00:08:43.179 Ashwini Sharma: Basically, what we wanted was,

100 00:08:43.409 00:08:48.009 Ashwini Sharma: To check the output produced by ticket number 8,

101 00:08:48.170 00:08:54.440 Ashwini Sharma: with the platform data, right? And since the platform data has much more attributes than what I had in

102 00:08:54.880 00:08:58.590 Ashwini Sharma: Ticket number 8, I had to reload the pipeline.

103 00:08:58.890 00:09:04.930 Ashwini Sharma: Okay. So, what I’ll do today is, I’ll talk to Michael and compare with the existing attributes that is there.

104 00:09:05.070 00:09:06.090 Ashwini Sharma: in aid.

105 00:09:06.300 00:09:14.140 Ashwini Sharma: the… the part number 8 that creates, creates it, and then see how much QA we can do, right? Now, there…

106 00:09:14.140 00:09:14.760 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

107 00:09:14.760 00:09:27.130 Ashwini Sharma: what they want… their platform data has a lot more attributes, right? So we cannot do the QA for the entire dataset, but at least we can do it for some of the stuff, and then see whether, you know, the thing that we are trying to do works or not.

108 00:09:28.020 00:09:31.269 Awaish Kumar: So, all of these three tickets are kind of related, right?

109 00:09:31.270 00:09:33.110 Ashwini Sharma: It’s kind of related, yes.

110 00:09:34.060 00:09:39.699 Awaish Kumar: Okay, and did you know the… what’s, like, on Demi’s part, like, is there any updates?

111 00:09:40.180 00:09:49.560 Ashwini Sharma: No, so Demi will be building, no, he can at least do the other part, so… but I haven’t been able to get in touch with Demi already.

112 00:09:50.090 00:09:50.820 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

113 00:09:50.820 00:09:56.530 Ashwini Sharma: So, he was not much online yesterday also, and I have not seen him online today as well.

114 00:09:56.530 00:10:11.139 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, he was working on Eden stuff yesterday, and today he… he has a doctor’s appointment right now, so he’ll be on in another hour. But yeah, I mean, I would… if anything’s ready to model, I would let him know, and I would just send in the channel, Ashwini, you don’t need to wait to…

115 00:10:12.080 00:10:13.569 Uttam Kumaran: Chat with him directly.

116 00:10:13.770 00:10:22.310 Ashwini Sharma: So he doesn’t have to wait… Yeah, he doesn’t have to wait for me to build this model. Like, he has two work items, right? One is the optimization of dbt models.

117 00:10:22.650 00:10:24.880 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Which he can work independent of.

118 00:10:24.880 00:10:25.729 Ashwini Sharma: what I’ve done.

119 00:10:25.730 00:10:30.870 Uttam Kumaran: But that he’s almost done on. Like, we’re… we’re gonna be discussing with him today.

120 00:10:31.110 00:10:33.690 Uttam Kumaran: Like, he’s gonna send me some stuff, we’re gonna wrap that up.

121 00:10:33.700 00:10:38.009 Ashwini Sharma: Okay. Yeah, the second one is the MMM model.

122 00:10:38.350 00:10:44.479 Ashwini Sharma: Which will be based on the SPINS data. So, I think that… that MMM can also start.

123 00:10:44.600 00:10:46.660 Ashwini Sharma: Partially. Let me confirm that.

124 00:10:46.890 00:10:50.770 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so I would try to let him know that that is unblocked.

125 00:10:50.900 00:10:52.580 Uttam Kumaran: And, like, how to begin on that.

126 00:10:52.580 00:10:53.680 Ashwini Sharma: Okay, sure.

127 00:10:54.230 00:10:54.910 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

128 00:10:54.910 00:10:56.960 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, that’s on the magic spoon.

129 00:10:58.630 00:11:01.719 Awaish Kumar: Okay, we can then move on.

130 00:11:03.370 00:11:05.820 Awaish Kumar: to… CTA.

131 00:11:08.030 00:11:17.610 Ashwini Sharma: CTA… so yesterday was all magic phones for me, right? And today, I’m looking into CTA. Catherine has changed the underlying,

132 00:11:17.910 00:11:24.160 Ashwini Sharma: folders in the data, right? So I’ll have to reload the data that she has put into a different schema.

133 00:11:24.450 00:11:27.160 Ashwini Sharma: And that is what I’m doing right now.

134 00:11:27.650 00:11:35.589 Ashwini Sharma: I’m also, you know, in the meanwhile, creating these source scripts, so that in case we have to load it again, we have it somewhere handy.

135 00:11:36.930 00:11:37.370 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

136 00:11:37.370 00:11:44.640 Uttam Kumaran: So, I think one thing on CTA, maybe, Ashwini, we can loop in Awash and have him get onboarded onto the client?

137 00:11:45.100 00:11:48.099 Uttam Kumaran: That way, he can also kind of play some coverage.

138 00:11:49.990 00:11:56.479 Uttam Kumaran: I can… I can go ahead and request that unless, unless you want to. I can go ahead and try to send a message.

139 00:11:57.910 00:12:00.700 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, anything is fine. You want me to send it? I can do that.

140 00:12:01.880 00:12:07.850 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah, maybe if you don’t… if you don’t mind sending that and just looping him into the channel, and then…

141 00:12:07.970 00:12:12.220 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, pinging Catherine and Jay, and just saying, like, we’d like to onboard Awash.

142 00:12:12.780 00:12:15.769 Uttam Kumaran: And then away, you can give a brief introduction.

143 00:12:15.950 00:12:19.440 Uttam Kumaran: That way I know, Ashwini, your time is starting to get split, so…

144 00:12:20.030 00:12:28.149 Uttam Kumaran: Away, a lot of our work right now is just straight DE work, so I think you’re gonna be… it’s gonna be really helpful to have you there.

145 00:12:28.910 00:12:31.719 Uttam Kumaran: And then once we bring on another DE, we can…

146 00:12:31.820 00:12:34.120 Uttam Kumaran: You know, you can start to probably pare down, so…

147 00:12:35.250 00:12:36.400 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah.

148 00:12:36.400 00:12:39.999 Uttam Kumaran: So yeah, let’s… let’s do that, because access may take some time today.

149 00:12:41.220 00:12:46.479 Awaish Kumar: Okay, did we actually work on linear and Gantt… Gantt chart on C4CTA?

150 00:12:47.130 00:12:48.670 Uttam Kumaran: I didn’t get a chance to…

151 00:12:48.670 00:12:49.390 Ashwini Sharma: No.

152 00:12:49.570 00:12:50.910 Uttam Kumaran: Dewey yesterday.

153 00:12:50.910 00:13:05.680 Ashwini Sharma: No, linear is updated with the modeling requirement, but yeah, on Monday, today’s what, Wednesday, right? Yeah. Monday, things changed. I’ll have to add one more ticket to ingest all those archived data sources.

154 00:13:06.560 00:13:12.540 Awaish Kumar: Okay, but is this correct? Like, this has been here for… For a few weeks now.

155 00:13:16.000 00:13:19.909 Ashwini Sharma: One second, man. Okay, let me refactor this today.

156 00:13:20.290 00:13:22.720 Awaish Kumar: Okay. Once again, let me take a note of that.

157 00:13:24.550 00:13:25.480 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah.

158 00:13:25.480 00:13:26.410 Ashwini Sharma: items…

159 00:13:28.310 00:13:31.600 Awaish Kumar: And also, like, maybe add, like, as I mentioned.

160 00:13:31.840 00:13:36.549 Awaish Kumar: Already, maybe we want to have a few more… Report… tickets for reports, which…

161 00:13:36.700 00:13:40.380 Awaish Kumar: Maybe you are already working on, but they are not here.

162 00:13:41.590 00:13:46.930 Uttam Kumaran: We had a long meeting on… we had a long meeting on Monday, where, like, a bunch of requirements came.

163 00:13:47.060 00:13:50.510 Uttam Kumaran: I was supposed to do this yesterday, I just didn’t get a chance to.

164 00:13:50.620 00:13:54.550 Uttam Kumaran: So, maybe once you’re on Awash, I can get your help.

165 00:13:56.320 00:14:02.380 Uttam Kumaran: Because my time has just really been… this is… this one’s on me, like, for driving forward, I said I would try to drive for Monday.

166 00:14:03.740 00:14:07.150 Awaish Kumar: Okay, okay, then we can look at it afterwards.

167 00:14:07.250 00:14:20.610 Awaish Kumar: Apart from that, we have… Element… For the element, we basically… Like, delivered the wholesale data.

168 00:14:20.760 00:14:25.040 Awaish Kumar: Cause, like, is there anything else, like, after that?

169 00:14:26.450 00:14:30.110 Awaish Kumar: Like, yesterday, do we have any… kind of…

170 00:14:30.110 00:14:32.659 Uttam Kumaran: They didn’t send any updates, I…

171 00:14:32.820 00:14:46.860 Uttam Kumaran: they also, like, again, this stupid formatting thing, like, we were totally right, and she kind of messed it up, but it’s fine. So, I think today, Awash, maybe we can just ping Laura and say, like, hey.

172 00:14:47.390 00:14:56.659 Uttam Kumaran: did it end up being useful for their meeting yesterday? And then, like, we should go ahead and get that in… we should go ahead and start, modeling

173 00:14:56.830 00:15:01.999 Uttam Kumaran: basically, like, a final wholesale table that we can start to schedule in DBT.

174 00:15:03.240 00:15:06.059 Awaish Kumar: So, like, we…

175 00:15:06.430 00:15:14.540 Awaish Kumar: So that, the one, the big one, which is a basic… Yeah. That is already, like, kind of in DBT, and it is…

176 00:15:14.700 00:15:20.010 Awaish Kumar: you can say, DVD model is running daily and up-to-date, we just need to…

177 00:15:20.010 00:15:20.540 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

178 00:15:21.170 00:15:26.480 Awaish Kumar: run it through Polytomic to… for, like, regular updates in Google Sheet, that’s all.

179 00:15:27.480 00:15:30.679 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so I guess two pieces. One is, like, we want to weave in

180 00:15:30.790 00:15:37.630 Uttam Kumaran: we want to weave in more, dimensions, right? Like… I think keeping the 52-week

181 00:15:38.360 00:15:45.019 Uttam Kumaran: thing, and the monthly thing is fine, but I also want to weave in the other dimensions there as well.

182 00:15:45.260 00:15:49.749 Uttam Kumaran: But there’s… I think we’re gonna have two tables.

183 00:15:49.940 00:15:52.789 Uttam Kumaran: Like, I think we’re gonna have… yeah, yeah, go ahead.

184 00:15:53.280 00:15:56.209 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, that’s what I’m saying, like, there’s one base table, right?

185 00:15:56.580 00:15:57.010 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

186 00:15:57.250 00:16:06.420 Awaish Kumar: just the partner’s data on a partner level. Like, on the second one is a summary view, basically, and it just has the…

187 00:16:06.600 00:16:11.430 Awaish Kumar: metrics, right? So we want to have these two different tables running daily, right?

188 00:16:12.140 00:16:13.220 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, that’s correct.

189 00:16:14.410 00:16:16.289 Awaish Kumar: Okay, and it should just be.

190 00:16:16.290 00:16:20.790 Uttam Kumaran: So if you… if you want to ship that, and then I can review, Let’s do it.

191 00:16:21.320 00:16:24.200 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, that’s totally possible, I can do that.

192 00:16:24.720 00:16:32.259 Uttam Kumaran: Cool, cool. Yeah, and then that way, this week, we can collaborate with them and finalize some of those definitions. So, yeah, let’s do that.

193 00:16:32.880 00:16:40.309 Uttam Kumaran: And then, in our tech meeting later today, I want to just walk, that team through the first model that we developed.

194 00:16:41.060 00:16:41.640 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

195 00:16:42.770 00:16:45.399 Uttam Kumaran: So, that’s basically it for today.

196 00:16:46.630 00:16:49.249 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, that’s… Okay, that’s the.

197 00:16:49.250 00:16:51.890 Uttam Kumaran: Polytomic sent us an email about, like.

198 00:16:51.890 00:16:56.099 Awaish Kumar: I read it, but I didn’t have… I haven’t got time.

199 00:16:56.100 00:16:59.319 Uttam Kumaran: of, like, I’m still, like, not, like, happy with the response.

200 00:16:59.870 00:17:00.460 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I’m…

201 00:17:00.460 00:17:02.169 Uttam Kumaran: Just sync, just sync from reading.

202 00:17:02.170 00:17:04.150 Awaish Kumar: I’m also not happy, like, because…

203 00:17:04.150 00:17:04.960 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

204 00:17:04.960 00:17:18.170 Awaish Kumar: the problem is they already have the data, right? Shopify is no longer a blocker. They have more than 3 million rows downloaded from Shopify, but it is sitting in polyatomic.

205 00:17:20.790 00:17:29.420 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, like… Yeah, I agree, like… This is pretty rough.

206 00:17:29.980 00:17:35.710 Uttam Kumaran: So, I don’t know, like, I don’t know what alternatives we have, though, like…

207 00:17:36.310 00:17:38.210 Uttam Kumaran: They need to build connectors.

208 00:17:38.560 00:17:42.110 Uttam Kumaran: first… maybe for cli- like, I don’t know…

209 00:17:42.690 00:17:46.429 Uttam Kumaran: maybe I just gotta ping Gob and say, like, yo, what’s…

210 00:17:47.700 00:17:59.989 Uttam Kumaran: like, what’s going on here, because for our clients, they’re gonna want more recent data first, so… I’ll piggyback on the email and just try to say, like, hey, we’d like to have a long-term plan here, because, like, we’re continuing to push Polytonic.

211 00:18:00.480 00:18:01.719 Ashwini Sharma: I wish got dropped.

212 00:18:02.910 00:18:03.879 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay, okay.

213 00:18:20.320 00:18:27.120 Uttam Kumaran: I guess otherwise, maybe Mustafa, briefly, I can, I would love if you can,

214 00:18:27.300 00:18:30.760 Uttam Kumaran: I left some comments on the default.

215 00:18:31.290 00:18:39.089 Uttam Kumaran: thing. My ask, I think, like, moving forward is, like, for you to get feedback from Robert and from.

216 00:18:39.090 00:18:39.420 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

217 00:18:40.190 00:18:41.740 Uttam Kumaran: EPs first.

218 00:18:42.710 00:18:44.260 Mustafa Raja: And, like, push, like…

219 00:18:44.410 00:18:48.160 Uttam Kumaran: push people to give you feedback, like, tag them.

220 00:18:49.150 00:18:55.209 Uttam Kumaran: Like, the goal of having the different groups is for everyone to give feedback on each other’s stuff.

221 00:18:55.320 00:18:59.569 Uttam Kumaran: So I don’t want to continue to, like… I mean, I’m gonna kinda, like, pull myself out of it.

222 00:18:59.830 00:19:18.640 Uttam Kumaran: But, like, it’s up to you to work with your CSO, and then I think you guys basically did that, and then when you… when you release for feedback, go to the SLs, and go to the EPs. If you… I think… if you want, just send it into engineering and tag the people that you want reviews from. We’re a small group, right? So, like.

223 00:19:18.790 00:19:23.540 Uttam Kumaran: I think, probably, I would say avoid just, like, sending it with no tags.

224 00:19:23.770 00:19:41.429 Uttam Kumaran: always try to tag people directly, you know? Because I want a ways to look at that too, but I also want other EPs to sort of see a little bit of amplitude work. Robert, in particular, is the service lead for strategy and analytics, so he needs to give the approval. Like, I’m… consider me, like.

225 00:19:41.640 00:19:42.600 Uttam Kumaran: the…

226 00:19:42.990 00:19:50.710 Uttam Kumaran: backup, backup, backup plan. Or, like, red alert. If, like, if you, like, need a review urgently, I can come figure it out, but, like.

227 00:19:50.820 00:19:52.590 Uttam Kumaran: Consider me Plan D, you know?

228 00:19:52.590 00:20:08.929 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. Yeah, I did that. I pinged Robert, to give a review, and I, synced with, Greg, to sort of work on whatever, reviews you had, on the GAN. Okay. So, I’ve sent Robert a new word, new…

229 00:20:08.930 00:20:16.310 Uttam Kumaran: I actually would also want to ask if you can join the strategy stand-ups, now that you have

230 00:20:16.820 00:20:20.189 Uttam Kumaran: So you can go ahead and either ping Rico to add you.

231 00:20:20.460 00:20:32.940 Uttam Kumaran: So your job, and for all the EPs, your job is to push. Like, whether it’s through Slack or through a meeting, say, like, hey, I need a review on this, like, we’re not going anywhere until you give me a review.

232 00:20:33.100 00:20:40.060 Uttam Kumaran: You know? So, yeah, join the strategy meeting today, and then ask right in that meeting. Like, it’ll be a good discussion, so…

233 00:20:40.060 00:20:41.539 Mustafa Raja: Okay, I’ll do that.

234 00:20:41.540 00:20:42.270 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool.

235 00:20:42.580 00:20:47.710 Uttam Kumaran: And then Awash, yeah, let’s, maybe me and you can chat about Polyatomic offline, and we can figure it out.

236 00:20:49.500 00:20:56.150 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, sure. And, yeah, like, for this also, like, if I get your help, actually.

237 00:20:56.560 00:20:59.250 Awaish Kumar: Like, we already worked on Gantt chart.

238 00:20:59.360 00:21:02.280 Awaish Kumar: But, yeah, if there are any missing stuff.

239 00:21:02.480 00:21:04.760 Awaish Kumar: Or, like, if we need a plan for…

240 00:21:05.010 00:21:07.499 Awaish Kumar: Next few weeks, we can just edit here.

241 00:21:07.910 00:21:08.620 Awaish Kumar: In…

242 00:21:08.620 00:21:12.779 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, sure, I’ll sync up with you on this one to get.

243 00:21:13.700 00:21:15.030 Awaish Kumar: Robert, yeah.

244 00:21:15.030 00:21:15.790 Ashwini Sharma: Okay.

245 00:21:16.420 00:21:21.099 Ashwini Sharma: In the meantime, I’ll just introduce you in the CTA channel to Catherine.

246 00:21:23.300 00:21:28.960 Awaish Kumar: Then we have… ABC, right? We are all, like…

247 00:21:29.150 00:21:32.399 Awaish Kumar: how we end up on BigQuery ingestion, most far?

248 00:21:32.550 00:21:34.870 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, so,

249 00:21:35.130 00:21:53.689 Mustafa Raja: I need to, record a loom for the last bit. About 60… 65% of the data is in there, the rest of the data, it has a lot of different schemas, so I need to figure that out, with the team. So I’m going to record a loom.

250 00:21:54.230 00:21:58.979 Mustafa Raja: For the team to, to see how people can help me out there.

251 00:22:01.980 00:22:03.779 Uttam Kumaran: What data is this concerning?

252 00:22:03.870 00:22:22.719 Mustafa Raja: This is, this is the initial, data that we got from, ABC team for sales. I think Amber did her analysis on this, so no one’s blocked because of this, because analysis is already done. Amber said that she would still want this data

253 00:22:22.720 00:22:25.839 Mustafa Raja: to be in BigQuery for future reference.

254 00:22:27.090 00:22:31.810 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, great, yeah. And I’m continuing to push on Evolve and Dream.

255 00:22:31.990 00:22:33.720 Uttam Kumaran: for access? Did we get cheese?

256 00:22:33.720 00:22:34.090 Awaish Kumar: Yup.

257 00:22:34.090 00:22:39.059 Uttam Kumaran: like, did we get GA data in BigQuery, or, like, what’s blocking us to do the native integration?

258 00:22:42.170 00:22:43.349 Mustafa Raja: Sorry, which data?

259 00:22:43.570 00:22:43.920 Awaish Kumar: Like, who.

260 00:22:43.920 00:22:45.180 Uttam Kumaran: The Google Analytics data?

261 00:22:45.180 00:22:45.569 Awaish Kumar: What was it?

262 00:22:45.570 00:22:47.869 Uttam Kumaran: If not, then let’s create a ticket for that.

263 00:22:48.090 00:22:50.689 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, it’s not… yeah, I don’t have context on that.

264 00:22:50.690 00:22:53.290 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s do that, because I think you may just have to press a button.

265 00:22:53.540 00:22:54.140 Mustafa Raja: Okay.

266 00:22:55.650 00:22:56.480 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, yeah.

267 00:22:57.230 00:22:59.770 Awaish Kumar: Like, it’s very easy to do that.

268 00:23:00.590 00:23:09.859 Awaish Kumar: Oh… Yeah, so… I think we got the service count, we got the PKD setup, we got the…

269 00:23:10.150 00:23:14.129 Awaish Kumar: Sales data there, some of it, and we will be easily…

270 00:23:14.370 00:23:22.159 Awaish Kumar: move, like, ingest GA data to BigQuery. So, what is DEX like? Like, why did we want it in BigQuery? Just for GA, or…

271 00:23:22.320 00:23:23.130 Awaish Kumar: Like, what’s the next.

272 00:23:23.130 00:23:27.110 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, no, we’re gonna be proposing them, to adopt it and…

273 00:23:27.230 00:23:29.390 Uttam Kumaran: Build their data warehouse on there.

274 00:23:31.290 00:23:35.640 Awaish Kumar: Okay. Okay, so all the evolved data and everything now goes to BigQuery,

275 00:23:35.940 00:23:39.100 Awaish Kumar: we will be proposing BigQuery as a warehouse.

276 00:23:40.190 00:23:40.690 Uttam Kumaran: Correct.

277 00:23:45.960 00:23:50.859 Awaish Kumar: Okay, then we have… The final one, default.

278 00:23:51.370 00:23:58.709 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, so, we might be, we might, we might get, a little bit behind, because,

279 00:23:58.820 00:24:14.280 Mustafa Raja: we were projecting, to ingest all the data sources in Mother Duck by this week, but, I see that the meeting with Polyatomic and Default is set up for this Friday.

280 00:24:14.280 00:24:22.570 Mustafa Raja: And we still don’t have access to all of the data sources that we would need. So, we need to push that.

281 00:24:24.850 00:24:32.319 Awaish Kumar: So, why do we need access to all the data sources, like, beforehand? We can do it incrementally, right?

282 00:24:33.580 00:24:39.760 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I think, I think we might, we might, we own, hmm… Yeah…

283 00:24:40.520 00:24:49.309 Mustafa Raja: But I, they are meeting with, Polytomic. I, I need to sync, sync, with Demiladi on that. No, we can’t have…

284 00:24:49.800 00:24:57.499 Awaish Kumar: We can have a list of data sources, we can have an estimate of data volume, and then they can sync with the polyatomic team.

285 00:24:57.610 00:25:08.559 Awaish Kumar: For that, we don’t need access, and even if we have one or two data sources authentication details, we can just sync that, and we can continue to do that incrementally.

286 00:25:09.070 00:25:10.769 Awaish Kumar: That’s how we do.

287 00:25:10.770 00:25:15.129 Mustafa Raja: dual… Yeah, we do have access on the few of, data sources.

288 00:25:16.950 00:25:19.700 Awaish Kumar: Okay, but did we have approval for polyatomic?

289 00:25:20.080 00:25:21.210 Awaish Kumar: From client.

290 00:25:21.640 00:25:29.969 Mustafa Raja: I don’t think so, I think that is why we are, they are meeting with, Polyatomic directly. I believe Ademate will be in that meeting also.

291 00:25:31.560 00:25:39.459 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so that’s… so, okay, that’s the plan. We are… Yeah, so, like Actually, this does not reflect

292 00:25:39.830 00:25:42.500 Awaish Kumar: So, we already shipped the ETL plan, right?

293 00:25:42.500 00:25:43.130 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

294 00:25:46.340 00:25:53.759 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, client review is… I don’t know. That’s done right. That’s why they are meeting polyatomic.

295 00:25:54.090 00:25:55.760 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, it’s pretty much done.

296 00:25:58.930 00:26:03.320 Awaish Kumar: And then, like, if we are meeting with Polyatomic, we should be… have a… we should have a…

297 00:26:03.580 00:26:06.929 Awaish Kumar: some kind of… Tracker here.

298 00:26:07.350 00:26:14.680 Awaish Kumar: Okay. Because, like, Jamie will be spending time being in that meeting, right? Okay. It will be kind of an hour long, maybe.

299 00:26:14.830 00:26:19.580 Awaish Kumar: Similarly, What else, in terms of tickets?

300 00:26:19.580 00:26:23.820 Mustafa Raja: So we started, working on the Salesforce dashboard,

301 00:26:24.740 00:26:30.740 Mustafa Raja: And and we are projecting this to be, done within… within this week.

302 00:26:30.980 00:26:34.099 Mustafa Raja: And then we wanted to, ingest the data.
