It captures required concepts for starting out your data engineering journey. Although the concepts are hard to understand if one has entirely no background in data-related jobs.

Good introduction if you know nothing about the subject yet. Not very useful if you already work in the field though it is nice to hear different perspectives on the subject.

An excelent introduction. It gives an outline of the field, the profession, the tools, and the rest of the specialization. It could benefit from having a teacher on screen.
