Hey r/datasets, after a few weeks of working after hours, I put together a dataset that I’m quite proud of.
It contains over 100k unique series from the Federal Reserve (FRED) and it’s updated daily. There’s over 50 million observations last I checked and growing.
For those unaware, FRED contains all the economic data you can think of. Think inflation, prices, housing, growth, and other rates from city to country level. It’s foundational for great ML and data analytics across companies.
Data refreshes are orchestrated using Dagster nightly. I built in asset data quality checks to ensure each step is performing correctly along the way.
FRED Series Observations has a 30 day free trial. Please give it a try (and cancel before the time is up)! 🙂 And let me know how I can improve it!
Let me know if you like to learn more about how I built the job to bring in the data. I would be more than happy to a post about it!
TLDR: I created an economic dataset containing the complete history of every single series from the Federal Reserve. What should I build next?
