A old database developer's take on data engineering, cloud and data SaaS products
I’m the kuya at Kurdapyo Labs — a recovering Oracle developer who saw the light and helped migrate legacy systems out of Oracle (and saved a lot of money doing it). I used to write PL/SQL, Perl, ksh, Bash, and all kinds of hand-crafted ETL. These days, I wrestle with PySpark, Airflow, Terraform, and YAML that refuses to cooperate. I’ve been around long enough to know when things were harder… and when they were actually better. This blog is where I write (and occasionally rant) about modern data tools — especially the ones marketed as “no-code” that promise simplicity, but still break in production anyway.
Disclaimer: These are my thoughts—100% my own, not my employer’s, my client’s, or that one loud guy on tech Twitter. I’m just sharing what I’ve learned (and unlearned) along the way. No promises, no warranties—just real talk, some opinions, and the occasional coffee/beer-fueled rant.
If something here helps you out, awesome! If you think I’ve missed something or want to share your own take, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s learn from each other.
