A Github integration ensures enterprise-grade governance, automation, and agility for data engineering workflows. By leveraging GitHub and LevelUp tooling, clients gain robust version control, rollback capabilities, and automated testing/deployment for pipelines and DAGs. It reduces operational risk, accelerates delivery, and aligns with modern DevOps practices.

Large enterprise clients like AT&T, who manage complex data pipelines across hybrid environments, will benefit from streamlined CI/CD processes, improved security, and consistent governance across services. How should it work? GitHub Integra...
