Data Engineering Interview Cheat Sheets for AWS, Azure and Google Cloud

One dense PDF per cloud for the night before a data engineering interview. The services that matter, how they map from Databricks, Spark and Snowflake, the patterns and cost traps interviewers ask about, SQL and modeling refreshers, a system design framework with three worked prompts, and 25 practice questions with short answers.

Service names are checked against the official docs as of October 2026, including this year's Google Cloud renames and where Synapse stands next to Fabric.

About the author

The author has 20+ years building data platforms, ETL and reporting systems, most recently as a technical team lead. He put these together because the cloud data stacks keep getting renamed, and interviewers still expect you to know what is current.
