11:15 AM EDT - 12:00 PM EDT Dan Sullivan: How to Design a Modern Data Warehouse in BigQuery, or Why I Needed to Forget Everything I Learned in Data Modeling School

Google BigQuery is a managed petabyte-scale data warehouse service that has features not available in traditional relational database management systems. Common data warehouse design patterns, like star schemas, can be used in BigQuery but may not be the most performant option. This talk will discuss the advantages of highly denormalized data models and how to take advantage of columnar storage, compression, composite data types, repeated fields, partitioning, clustering, and other features of BigQuery to design scalable data warehouses. https://www.dansullivanlearning.com 

12:00 PM EDT - 12:45 PM EDT Kudz Murefu: Small Teams, Big Things with Firebase & GCP Serverless Services

Kudz will explain how he launched a production-ready music streaming platform, Strma - that serves tens of thousands of users. He will share the Architectural evolution of https://Strma.io - how it grew from a small personal Firebase project into a real business using several other Google Cloud Serverless Services, plus the thought process that led him to the current Architecture.
