My Latest project using Gen AI

So recently parkrun removed all their stats and as a keen running who is trying to work their way up the top 100 of their local parkrun I wanted to get some of these stats back and have a bit of "fun" at the same time. So here is a little "ETL" process that I developed with the help of Gen AI. 

The steps of my ETL: 

  1. Copy and paste data into Google Sheets template where an AI produced formula extracts URLS from the text and puts them into a new field. This effectively allows me to extract the parkrun athlete id, the primary key, and use it in my analysis. I also have a column to autofill the data I am processing. 
  2. Use an Gen AI generated Google Apps script to process it into a processed sheet, this allows me to build up a backlog of events (I had over 500 to process). 
  3. This is then queried using a Gen AI Google sheets query to extract key information and columns / format times etc.
  4. I then ingest the fully processed sheet into Keboola directly from Google Sheets. 
  5. Within the Snowflake Keboola environment I then create views to summarise and process the data. 
  6. Present the data in Streamlit.  
The above is all saved into a GitHub repo and presented through Streamlit so anyone from Eastbourne parkrun can take a look. It still needs some work and I would love to do some more analysis for individual users.

AWS training cloud academy free course

One of the things I like about this course are the instructors are really clear but also that it provides free labs that allow you to actually sign into AWS and perform some actions to actually create and do things without worrying that you are going to incur a cost.  Today I complete one of the hands on labs.  This was to create a lambda function, in this case it was a very basic python script that was searching a website for a keyword. I then placed this into a schedule and used cloudwatch to create a dashboard that monitored the running of this function. Overall it was a very simple use case but it was also a very simple process to setup.  I don't have much to add to this other than it is well worth signing up to cloud academy for the free training if nothing else, I am tempted, once i have done some more training, to give the paid for option a go to get the full sandboxes.

Data Cleansing View in Snowflake

For part of one of my free ETLs I am using Zapps to transfer e-mails from Google Sheets and then Keboola to transfer the sheets into my Snowflake database. I am familiar with string searches and cleansing in Oracle and using python but have not had the chance to do this in Snowflake. I wanted to give it a go as a proof of concept if nothing else. There were some difference in functions between Oracle and Snowflake, no INSTR and using POSITION instead and some difference in working with dates / timestamps but overall it was very similar.  The code below is what I ended up using:  I think want to use this to create some overview graphics to allow me to track the success or failure of my ETLs. Assuming the aspects of Retool remain free you can see how much ETL is going on this link .  In case things aren't working, here is a table of the output I am producing.
