Join Shane Gibson and Nigel Vining as they describe and discuss the AgileData Engineering Pattern for the AgileData Activity Event Tile.

The Activity Event Tile pattern tracks a sequence of events (e.g., subscription signups, subscription payments) for a core business concept by storing minimal event data and using a hydration layer to automatically generate pre-calculated metrics as views.

This allows business users and analysts to easily understand business performance and event sequencing without complex SQL, providing immediate, consistent insights into activity movements and financial impacts

An AgileData Engineering Pattern is a repeatable, proven approach for solving a common data engineering challenge in a simple, consistent, and scalable way, designed to reduce rework, speed up delivery, and embed quality by default.
