A Rivian Data Adventure

Deez Watts, Powered by Databricks, Kubernetes, Python and the Open Road

Hello, Friends.

In case of adventure, make it a data adventure, one aimed at generating actionable (but mostly fun) insights from diverse data sources surrounding the fully connected Rivian driving experience. This will be a year long program that implements a live data streaming infrastructure and captures data emissions from a vehicle that doesn't have any emissions otherwise. Its not a startup or open source project, its an insights generation program of multiple passions slammed together in nerd format.

Timeline

Ok, so yeah, I think I've got enough to get started and share publicly but realistically Ill need to put some cycles into efficiencies with the streaming workload to avoid going broke before I turn it up 24/7. So how I want to handle it is target March 2024 as a "go-live" and see how far we get with a goal of the end of November in 2024 so we can release our own version of "wrapped" or alternatively keep the innovation rolling.

Can we all just appreciate the craftsmanship here with the utilization of the Knight Rider 2000 Rolling Data Center as a decision point ?
