🪙 Transforming Data in Databricks – Silver Table Creation with Constraints ⚙️

In this week’s cloud engineering series video, we take the Bronze table from last week and evolve it into a refined Silver table using Spark SQL in the Hive Metastore.

This is where data transformation begins.

We’ll walk through:

🔄 Changing data types for clarity and consistency

🧮 Generating new calculated columns

🛑 Enforcing constraints to raise data quality

💡 Encouraging experimentation to learn what works best for your pipeline

By the end, you’ll have a clean, structured table—ready for analytics or further processing in your Gold layer. This is where your raw data starts becoming valuable.

📊 Follow along weekly as we explore how to build resilient, scalable, and governed cloud data platforms!

👉 If your team is exploring how to modernize your data stack or scale your cloud analytics—reach out! I’d love to talk about how I can help.
