Medallion Architecture Explained

What is Medallion Architecture, and why is it commonly used in modern data platforms? In this episode, we explore the fundamentals of Medallion Architecture and its three core layers: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. We'll discuss the purpose of each layer, how data moves from raw sources to business-ready datasets, and how this approach relates to traditional data warehouse architectures. We'll also touch on ELT processing and walk through a practical example to see how it all works.
