Summary

Fivetran has introduced dbt packages to simplify the process of building reports on data loaded into a warehouse. These packages handle basic table standardization and joining, allowing users to focus on modeling unique business logic. They also include staging models for column name standardization and filtering out soft-deleted records, intermediate models for joining tables and aggregating data, and data tests to catch changes in source data that could affect reporting. Fivetran's dbt packages are compatible with cloud warehouses like Snowflake, Amazon Redshift, and Google BigQuery, and can be scheduled in dbt Cloud for fresh data updates.
