Chapter 2: Data Engineering with Alteryx
In Chapter 1, Getting Started with Alteryx, we began exploring the Alteryx platform and its use in data engineering. In this chapter, we will examine what the role of data engineering involves and how a person in that role would use the Alteryx platform. Throughout this book, we will assume you have a solid understanding of analytical processes but don't have any experience with Alteryx to deliver end-to-end analytic datasets.

- Using Alteryx products as a data engineer
- Applying DataOps as an Alteryx data engineer
