@Sujitha, glad to have contributed to the community highlight for this week's round-up 😎. 

It was a looong but rewarding weekend challenge. I'm looking forward to getting out some projects around DLT (Declarative Pipelines) in the community soon. I was blown away by how cool they are during the Data Engineering course.

Thanks for this week's delta summary @Sujitha 👏🙂.

All the best,
BS
