Automated Lakeflow Declarative Pipeline | Delta Live Tables + Workflows | Databricks Project| Python

Welcome back to DataToCrunch.

📌 In this project, I have utilized Databrick platform to create Automated Lakeflow Declarative Pipeline(DLT). In the initial part, I have covered the necessary theory to create this pipeline & workflow followed by the practical part.

Topics covered :
📂 Landing Layer – Auto Loader ingestion of customers & accounts data
🥉 Bronze Layer – Data cleaning with expectations & data quality checks
🥈 Silver Layer – Transformations, Slowly Changing Dimensions (SCD1 & SCD2)
🥇 Gold Layer – Business aggregations & materialized views for analytics
📊 BI & Reporting – Building dashboards powered by the Gold Layer
✅ Key concepts: backfilling, append flow, auto CDC, expectations, lineage, and governance
⚙️ How DLT + Workflows automate orchestration, improve reliability, and simplify operations

This project demonstrates how Databricks LakeFlow (DLT) makes data engineering pipelines declarative, scalable, and production-ready, while powering dashboards for real-time insights.
