đŸȘ” Unity Catalog: Building the Bronze Layer in Python

Raw data is messy.

But how you ingest it sets the tone for everything downstream.

In this week’s video, I walk you through creating the Bronze layer using Python in Databricks—specifically ingesting raw Encounter CSV data into Unity Catalog.


We’ll cover:

🔧 Setting up dynamic variables

🐍 Using Python to define ingestion logic

đŸ€ Collaboration tips to keep your pipelines maintainable

📁 Structuring raw layers that scale across teams and use cases

The bronze layer is the foundation—if this piece isn’t solid, your Silver and Gold layers (and all your MLOps/BI on top) will suffer.
