Maven for Data Engineers

An introduction to maven

Maven is a project management tool for Java and other JVM languages (like Kotlin, Scala, and Groovy). It is built on the idea of convention over configuration. It helps us with the following:

• Build & packaging
• Dependency management
• Customisation through Plugins

It is based on XML. It expects the following project structure.

└── src/
    ├── main/
    │   ├── java
    │   └── resources
    └── test/
        ├── java
        └── resources
