Felipe Hoffa meets Alyson La, Data Scientist at GitHub. They explore how she uses BigQuery and other big data tools to do her job at GitHub. Featuring 3 open datasets: GitHub Archive (a timeline of all GitHub events, https://www.githubarchive.org/), GitHub Data (the contents of GitHub open source files ready to be analyzed https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/public-data/github) and GHTorrent (similar to GitHub Archive, plus additional tables http://ghtorrent.org/). On the tools side we show how Alyson works with the BigQuery web UI, and the connections between BigQuery, Tableau, and Looker.
