We had a good day yesterday. We didn’t produce anything new but we paid off a huge chunk of technical debt.

We moved our data warehouse to a new database on a new server and completed the upgrade of our (several hundred) data feed jobs to Talend 6.

There were a few obstacles along the way but nothing that the crack team of experts working around me couldn’t handle.

Whilst we were confident that we had got everything working yesterday, it was still reassuring to see that all of the overnight jobs, including the warehouse load, ran successfully last night.
