Intro to dbt Cloud // Use Free for Life

Want to build a reliable, modern data architecture without the mess?

Most of us get started with dbt working with that open source, command line version of the tool.

But they also offer a cloud hosted environment where you can do all the same things but without the hassle of setting up your own infrastructure.

So in today's video I want to walk you through how to get started with DBT Cloud to build your project and run commands.

We'll also take a look at a variety of the other features that are on there that can make your life A LOT easier as a dbt developer.

Thank you for watching!

I have a Qn - I understand DBT cloud is designed for enterprise level use cases with UI and customizations, on the other side is DBT Core meant to use only for local and single machine or it can even be used at larger(enterprise) scale with appropriate configurations? have you come across any such usecase where core is used at production level. your knowledge is much appreciated. thanks

Hi, are you planning to do some tutorial videos dbt with Spark ?

Hi Kahan, I have imported a dbt project from github into another dbt project as a package, Is there any way to secure the package with key pair? So that it can be imported as package only if we have the key pair.
Thanks in advance.

What are your thoughts on taking the analytics engineering role as a stepping stone to data engineer? I know DBT is key for analytics engineers.

How far can we get with the free version?

Quick Question.

I had dbt cli installed and was using that and had pushed my code to github. Can I just import the github project in dbt cloud or do I have to run dbt init ?

Thanks

Our code is in Bitbucket. Does that not work with DBT cloud?

Mike, if you don't mind, I am trying to create a copy of a table from SQL server in Redshift, can I use DBT for that or would something like DMS be better?
