  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Scio

    A Scala API for Apache Beam and Google Cloud Dataflow.

  • Generally Python is a lingua franca. I have never met a data engineer that doesn't know Python. Scala isn't used everywhere. Also, you should know that in Apache Beam (data processing framework that's gaining popularity because it can handle both streaming and batch processing and runs on spark) the language choices are Java, Python, Go and Scala. So, even if you "only" know Java, you can get started with Data engineering through apache beam.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
