Moving and transforming data across a data pipeline is a common requirement whether you are building a data warehouse, big data, machine learning or a set of collaborating micro services, and making the pipeline scalable is a challenging task, with tradeoffs depending on the choices of the designs. We will look through a few designs based on experiences of building a speech analytic platform that could scale down to a VM and up to be a scalable cloud service. The components that require your design considerations and whys. They include architecture components required to 1) scale quickly, 2) scale efficiently and 3) Handle change resiliently. 

What You'll Learn

Architecture components required to:

1. scale quickly
2. scale efficiently
3. be resilient to change
