Data Engineering and Architecture


The data architect and data engineer work in tandem – conceptualizing, visualizing, and then building an Enterprise Data Management Framework. The data architect visualizes the complete framework and creates the blueprint, which the data engineer uses to build the “digital framework.”

The data engineering role has recently evolved from the traditional software-engineering field. Recent Enterprise Data Management experiments have proven beyond doubt that these data-focused software engineers are needed to work along with the data architects to build a strong Data Architecture. Between 2013 and 2015, the growth of data engineers was around 122 percent in response to a massive data industry need.
