"What Is The Modern Data Stack - Intro To Data Infrastructure Part [--] To put things simply the modern data stack (MDS) is a set of tools that power data integration. In order these tools include a fully managed data pipeline for extract load and transform (ELT) processes along with a cloud-based data lake or columnar warehouse for the datas destination. On top of that MDS requires a data transformation tool and a visualization or business intelligence (BI) platform so your company can make use of all the numbers. The primary difference between a modern data stack and a legacy data stack lies in"

This wide range makes it difficult for data engineers as well as companies to really articulate what they want and their skill sets. Hopefully this video helps discuss some of those differences.
