What is the MiFID II for DataOps Engineers course about?

DataOps teams in financial services often rebuild similar compliance pipelines from scratch each reporting cycle. Without standardised, documented patterns, effort doesn’t compound, it repeats. This drains bandwidth, delays audit readiness, and limits visibility into data lineage when regulators dig deeper.
