About

We developed a scalable, high-performance data platform with a centralized Data Warehouse integrating APIs and SQL Server sources. ETL pipelines powered by Apache Spark enable distributed data processing, while Apache Airflow orchestrates workflows. Using FastAPI for modular endpoints and Pandas for data transformation, the system ensures efficient processing, robust monitoring, and automated recovery for reliability.
