In Data Engineering, programming plays a key role. Whether you work with interfaces, databases, or are involved in data transformation and validation, programming skills are essential for every data engineer.

Why Python?

Python is a programming language that has deservedly become extremely popular in recent years. Particularly in data processing, it is the dominant language because engineering tasks often overlap with Data Science tasks.

Unlike Java, Python is easier to learn, and therefore, it often becomes the first programming language for beginners.
