A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.

ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

2. “Those that do not learn from
their mistakes, are bound to
repeat them”
3. Multiple Causes of Accidents
“Friendly Fire” Incident in Afghanistan
– who was at fault?
Pilots, air controllers, ground control, commanders,
communication, US/Canadian Administration …..?
4. Understanding the terms
What is an accident?
– an unplanned undesirable event that interrupts a
planned activity and that results in injury/illness
or property damage
What is an incident?
What is an “Accident/Incident
Investigation”?
5. What is an Accident
Investigation?
An accident investigation is the analysis and
account of an accident based on information
gathered by a thorough and conscientious
examination of all factors involved.
6. Investigation Concepts
Why do we investigate accidents?
Prevent future incidents
To identify and correct/eliminate unsafe
conditions, acts or procedures
Reduce costs and down time
Regulatory requirements
Process WCB claims
10. Five basic principles of
effective accident investigation
accidents are generally rooted in
management system flaws or failures
all accidents (or at least their outcomes) are
preventable
investigations must be aimed at identifying
root causes
proper investigative techniques
investigative training
11. Accident Causation
Must remember 3 basic facts:
Accidents are caused.
Accidents can be prevented by eliminating
the causes.
Unless the causes are eliminated, the same
accidents will happen again.
12. Accident Causation
Most accidents have at four or five root
causes or factors that contribute. Often there
are more.
Your task is to identify as many as possible
13. Accident Causation
3 questions to ask, when considering the
contributing factors of an accident.
What can management do to prevent the
incident from recurring?
What can the supervisor do to prevent
recurrence?
What can the worker do?
14. Regulatory Requirements
The WC Act Part 3
– Division 10, sect. 172-177
OH&S Regulation 3.3 (e)
You must remember these are the minimum
standards
15. Informing the WCB
Every employer shall inform the board immediately of the
occurrence of any accident which:
(a) resulted in serious injury to or the death of a worker, or
(b) involved a major structural failure or collapse of a building,
bridge, tower, crane, hoist, temporary construction support
system, or excavation, or
(c) involved the major release of a hazardous substance, or
(d) was an incident required by regulation to be reported.
16. Informing the Board -
Hazardous substance release
As a general guideline, a report would be expected
when:
1) The incident resulted in an injury which required
immediate medical attention beyond the level of
service provided by a first aid attendant, or injuries
to several workers which require first aid.
2) The incident resulted in a situation of continuing
danger to workers, as when the release of a
chemical cannot be readily or quickly cleaned up.
17. Preservation of evidence
Except as otherwise directed by an officer of
the board or peace officer, a person must not
disturb the scene of an accident that is
reportable except as far as necessary to
attend to persons injured or killed
prevent further injuries of death or
protect property that is endangered
18. Accidents to be investigated
173 (1) Except in the case of a vehicle accident
occurring on a public street or highway, every
employer shall initiate immediately an
investigation into the cause of every accident
which:
(a) is required to be reported by section 172, or
(b) resulted in injury requiring medical treatment, or
(c) did not involve injury or involved only minor
injury not requiring medical attention but had a
potential for causing serious injury.
19. Investigators’ Qualifications
-Investigations shall be carried out by
persons knowledgeable about the type of
work involved.
-If they are reasonably available, with the
participation of the employer or their
representative and a worker representative*
*joint committee member or worker H&S rep.
20. Intent of an investigation
An incident investigation shall, as far as
possible,
– determine the cause or causes of the incident,
– identify any unsafe conditions, acts or
procedures which contributed in any manner to
the incident and
– recommend corrective action to prevent similar
incidents.
21. Availability of witnesses
The employer must:
make every reasonable effort to have available for
interview by the person conducting the
investigation, or by an officer of the board, all
witnesses to the incident and any other persons
whose presence might be required for a proper
investigation of the incident.
Record the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of witnesses and other persons with
information
22. Incident investigation reports
The employer shall ensure that an incident
investigation report is prepared containing:
(a) the place, date and time of the incident
(b) the names and job titles of persons
injured
(c) the names of witnesses
(d) a brief description of the incident
23. Incident investigation reports -
3.4
(e) a statement of the sequence of events which
preceded the incident,
(f) identification of any unsafe conditions, acts or
procedures which contributed in any manner to the
incident,
(g) recommended corrective actions to prevent similar
incidents,
(h) the names of the persons who investigated the
incident.
24. Distribution of reports
Copies of incident investigation reports shall
be forwarded without undue delay to the
OH&S Committee and to the nearest board
office.
25. Follow-up action and report
Every employer shall initiate corrective
action without undue delay to prevent
recurrence of similar incidents
prepare a report of the action taken to the
Joint Health & Safety Committee, or where
there is no such committee, shall post the
report for reference by workers.
26. Investigation Concepts
Understand that an accident/incident cannot
be investigated unless it is known that one
has occurred.
What are some reasons why
accident/incidents are not reported and how
would you ensure that they are reported?
27. What to Investigate
Serious and Major accidents
– usually investigated automatically.
Minor and Near-Miss
– indicators that point to a condition or practice
that, if allowed to continue, could cause injury or
equipment damage.
Investigations of serious accidents often
reveal earlier incidents of a similar nature
that have been dismissed as insignificant.
28. What to determine
Who was involved/injured? Witnesses
Where did accident happen? exactly
When did accident occur?
What were immediate & basic causes
Why was unsafe act/condition permitted
How can similar accidents be prevented
29. Investigation Steps
Reporting
First aid & medical care
Advise investigators
Identify causes
Report findings
Implement corrective action
Evaluate the effectiveness
Make changes for continuous improvement
30. Accident Causes - Root
Cause Analysis
Task
Material/Equipment
Environment
Human Factors
Management (cultural factors)
31. Begin with the proximate
cause and work backwards
from there
unsafe behavior?
Equipment failure?
Unsafe procedure?
32. Task
Was a safe work procedure used?
Had conditions changed to make the normal
procedure unsafe?
Were the appropriate tools and materials
available and used?
Were safety devices working properly?
33. Material
Was there an equipment failure?
– What caused it to fail?
– Poor design? …. Poor Maintenance?
Were hazardous materials involved?
– Were they clearly identified?
– Was a less hazardous material
possible/available?
Should PPE has been used?
35. Human Factors
Age
Experience
Attitude
Physical condition
Health status
Emotional status
36. Accident Causes-
Management/Organizational
Had hazards been previously identified?
Were hazards eliminated or adequately controlled?
Had procedures been developed to address them?
Were work procedures available/followed?
37. Management
Task Structure
Work organization
Workplace design/layout
Equipment availability
Policies/procedures
Training program-new & transfered
Supervision
New employee screening program
Management’s example
38. Accident Time Phases
Look at accident in three time phases.
Events leading up to accident. The accident. Immediately afterwards.
39. Conducting the investigation
Remember….
– Focus on the system and not
the individual
– Focus on cause and not blame
Investigation team
– management representative
– OH&S committee worker representative
40. Investigation Procedure
Visit the scene - secure to minimize risk of
further injury/damage
Keep scene as undisturbed as possible
Make accurate record of scene (photos,
drawings, measurements)
Conduct interviews
Evaluate evidence, draw conclusions
Write report with recommendations.
Follow-up.
41. Interviewing persons with
information
Who to interview?
– Injured worker
– supervisor
– eye witnesses
– workers on another shift
– new or transferred workers to area
– anyone with information!
42. Conducting Interviews
Put the person a ease
– they may not see the bigger picture and feel
personally responsible.
Reassure each person of the investigation’s
main purpose.
Ask person to relate their account
(in their own words).
Listen but do not interrupt.
– Do not take notes.
– Do not use a tape recorder.
43. Interviews (continued)
Have person relate account again.
– Take notes.
– Ask questions.
Go over notes with person to ensure
accuracy.
Ask for suggestions to prevent recurrence.
Thank person for their help.
44. Evaluating/Analyzing
Information
Be objective - don’t start with a fixed opinion.
Consider all contributing factors.
Consider what information is direct, circumstantial
or hearsay.
Do not draw conclusion on the first basic cause
found.
Key questions:
-why did unsafe behavior occur?
-why did unsafe condition exist?
46. Example:
Electrician changes ballast without locking
out breaker or switch
Why?……Inadequate training? or Other
incentives override training?
Why?……Inadequate training?
– training material not effective
– trainer or method not effective
Why?…..Other incentives?
– Saving time more important
– no one else does it
47. Example cont’d.
Why?……training material not effective
– materials not understandable
– materials not specific for job
Why?…….training or method not effective
– trainer not adequately trained
– environment of training
48. Example cont’d.
Why?…….Saving time more important
– done it like this many times before without
consequences
– work load does not allow for established
procedure
Why?……No one else does it
– unsafe acts unseen by supervision
– unsafe acts seen but not corrected
Continue until run out of possible factors or
are stumped for further factors
49. Analyze for Remedies
Identify factors which if modified would
eliminate the unsafe behavior
Example - in this instance it may be
discovered that:
– worker had not been trained in lockout
procedures,
– unsafe behavior not corrected in past as
supervisors not adequately trained to correct
– workload means that if lockout device is not
readily available, then it will not be used
50. Determining Corrective Action
Review training program-analyze to determine
flaws
Review training for supervisors-look at motivation
Purchase additional lockout devices and issue one
set to each electrician
GOAL IS TO PREVENT FUTURE
INCIDENTS
– often necessitates making fundamental changes
51. Common Errors / Pitfalls
Believing carelessness is a cause of
accidents.
Assuming contradictory information
indicates falsehood.
Conducting interviews as if in a courtroom.
Looking for only one basic cause.
52. Investigation Follow Up
Delegate recommendations for corrective
action.
Publicize the investigation results.
Copies of reports through usual routings.
Post action taken as well as any
non-action and reasons.
Confirm that action has corrected the
problem.
53. Investigation Procedure-
Summary
Visit the scene - secure to minimize risk of
further injury/damage
Keep scene as undisturbed as possible
Make accurate record of scene (photos,
drawings, measurements)
Conduct interviews
Evaluate evidence, draw conclusions
Write report with recommendations.
Follow-up.
54. Investigation Kit
camera, film, flash
tape measure
clipboard, pad of paper
straight edge
pens, pencils
A.I. forms
Checklist
Flashlight
55. Remember…..
Focus on cause not blame
This allows management and supervisors to
consider failures in the management system
(company’s basic operating procedures and
management/supervisors attitudes), as the real
cause of the accident, rather to simply blame the
“defective worker”.
Murphy’s Law - “If it can go wrong, it will”
– goal is to minimize consequences of mistakes or unsafe
acts
