by Jun He , Yingyi Zhang , and Pawan Dixit Incremental processing is an approach to process new or changed data in workflows. The key advantage is that it only incrementally processes data that are newly added or updated to a dataset, instead of re-processing the complete dataset.

It’s much better to build your process around quality checks than retrofit these checks into the existent process. NIST did classic research to show that catching bugs at the beginning of the development process could be more than ten times cheaper than if a bug reaches production. There are so many benefits.

A production bug is the worst; besides impacting customer experience, you need special access privileges, making the process far more time-consuming. It also makes the process risky as production servers might be more exposed, leading to the need for real-time production data. This cumbersome process should not be the norm.
