The transformation from a gas to a hydrogen network
The path to complete decarbonisation will also have a massive impact on gas network operators: parts of the infrastructure will probably no longer be needed in the long term, while other parts will have to be upgraded for operation with hydrogen. In this blog post, we outline a procedure for preparing the switch to hydrogen. The data required for this can also be used for other purposes.

Change Data Capture for Data Lakehouse
Change Data Capture (CDC) is a technique that captures all data changes in a data archive, collects them and prepares them for transfer and replication to other systems, either as a batch process or as a stream. This blog post focuses on the application of CDC in data lakehouses using the example of Change Data Feed, a variant of CDC developed by Databricks in the context of delta lake-based data lakehouses.

Jsonnet as an accelerator for metadata-driven data pipelines
Metadata-driven data pipelines are a game changer for data processing in companies. These pipelines use metadata to dynamically update processes instead of manually revising each step every time a data source changes. As with data pipelines, metadata maintenance can be a bottleneck in the maintenance and further development of a pipeline framework. In this blog post, I use practical examples to show how the Jsonnet template language makes it easier to maintain metadata.
