  Introduction If you’re working with cloud data, especially on AWS, chances are you’ll encounter data stored in CSV files inside an Amazon S3 bucket . Whether you're building a data pipeline or a quick analysis tool, reading data directly from S3 in Python is a fast, reliable, and scalable way to get started. In this blog post, we’ll walk through: Setting up access to S3 Reading a CSV file using Python and Boto3 Displaying headers and rows Tips to handle larger datasets Let’s jump in! What You’ll Need An AWS account An S3 bucket with a CSV file uploaded AWS credentials (access key and secret key) Python 3.x installed boto3 and pandas libraries installed (you can install them via pip) pip install boto3 pandas Step-by-Step: Read CSV from S3 Let’s say your S3 bucket is named my-data-bucket , and your CSV file is sample-data/employees.csv . ✅ Step 1: Import Required Libraries import boto3 import pandas as pd from io import StringIO boto3 is...

The Real Use of Git in DevOps Environment

-
Why you need Git? Here's well explained with differences among Git, GitFlow and GitHub.

Git is a tool


Git in devops



It is created by Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux system. The tool was created to help Linux developers control the development flow among many developers around the world. It helps to solve conflicts, track the modifications, or even revert the configurations that were working before and stopped working in a new version.


To install Git, you can access the following link: https://git-scm.com/download/win


The installation process is the same as we did for all Windows applications; it is just Next, Next, and Finish.

After the installation, you will find a new program called Git Bash, which allows you to create your local repos and use the Git commands to create versions of your application.


GitFlow


Now, when we start working on a project, we have the code files that are already in production, and we cannot work in the main branch, because of the CI/CD pipelines. We need to generate a new version of our software with the complete code.

Let's commit the first version of the code, which will be shared among all the developers working on the same project: PS

C:\Users\1511 MXTI\Chapter09> git add --all PS C:\Users\1511 MXTI\Chapter09> git commit -m "uploading the scaffold of the project" [master (root-commit) f6284bf] uploading the scaffold of the project 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) create mode 100644 code.txt


If we run the git status again, nothing is untraced or pending to commit: PS C:\Users\1511 MXTI\Chapter09> git status On branch master nothing to commit, working tree clean


To check the branches you have, run the following command: PS C:\Users\1511 MXTI\Chapter09> git branch * master.

GitHub


The commands ran in the local machine and in a local environment. It was just the basic steps, but I am pretty sure that with these commands you will be able to do 80% of your work every day. If you cannot, there are many tools to help you with the Git commands, like git Kraken, or you can even use plugins for Visual Studio Code.

We need to have in mind that as bigger as your team is, you will have more conflicts and more changes happening at the same time.

To share our code, we can use many tools, like GitLab, GitHub, Bitbucket. There are dozens of services to help you with it. Let's use GitHub because it is the most famous. But, for some of my personal projects, I use Bitbucket, because we can have unlimited private repos.


You can create your own GitHub account for free on their website:

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...

5 SQL Queries That Popularly Used in Data Analysis

Image
 Here are five popular SQL queries frequently used in data analysis. 1. SELECT with Aggregations Summarize data by calculating aggregates like counts, sums, averages, etc. SELECT department, COUNT(*) as employee_count, AVG(salary) as average_salary FROM employees GROUP BY department; 2. JOIN Operations  Combine data from multiple tables based on a related column. SELECT e.employee_id, e.name, d.department_name FROM employees e JOIN departments d ON e.department_id = d.department_id; 3. WHERE Clause for Filtering Filter records based on specified conditions. SELECT * FROM sales WHERE sale_date BETWEEN '2024-01-01' AND '2024-12-31'   AND amount > 1000; 4. ORDER BY Clause for Sorting Sort results in ascending or descending order based on one or more columns. SELECT product_name, price FROM products ORDER BY price DESC; 5. GROUP BY with HAVING Clause Group records and apply conditions to the aggregated results. SELECT department, SUM(salary) as total_salaries FROM employ...
