Problem

What experience do you have scraping data from online sources, and have you built data pipelines or worked with relational databases?

Discuss a concrete implementation, including source access, parsing, scheduling, storage, data quality, retries, and monitoring. Be prepared to explain technology choices, schema design, incremental loading, and how you handled source changes or failures.
