FAQs

What is ETL?

ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is Gitlab?

GitLab is web-based Git repository manager. Whereas GitHub emphasizes infrastructure performance, GitLab’s focus is a features-oriented system. As an open-source collaborative platform, it enables developers to create code, review work, and deploy codebases collaboratively. It offers wiki, code reviews, built-in CI/CD, issue-tracking features, and much more.

What is S3?

Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) is a cloud-based object storage service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). It is designed to store and retrieve any amount of data from anywhere on the web. S3 is highly scalable, secure, and durable, making it an ideal solution for businesses of all sizes. S3 allows users to store and retrieve data in the form of objects, which can be up to 5 terabytes in size. These objects can be accessed through a web interface or through APIs, making it easy to integrate with other AWS services or third-party applications. S3 also offers a range of features, including versioning, lifecycle policies, and access control, which allow users to manage their data effectively. It also provides high availability and durability, ensuring that data is always accessible and protected against data loss. Overall, S3 is a powerful and flexible tool that enables businesses to store and manage their data in a secure and scalable way, making it an essential component of many cloud-based applications and services.

What data can you extract from Gitlab?

GitLab's API provides access to a wide range of data related to a user's GitLab account and projects. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through GitLab's API:  

1. User data: This includes information about the user's profile, such as name, email, and avatar.  

2. Project data: This includes information about the user's projects, such as project name, description, and visibility.  

3. Repository data: This includes information about the user's repositories, such as repository name, description, and access level.  

4. Issue data: This includes information about the user's issues, such as issue title, description, and status.  

5. Merge request data: This includes information about the user's merge requests, such as merge request title, description, and status.  

6. Pipeline data: This includes information about the user's pipelines, such as pipeline status, duration, and job details.  

7. Job data: This includes information about the user's jobs, such as job status, duration, and artifacts.  

8. Group data: This includes information about the user's groups, such as group name, description, and visibility.  

Overall, GitLab's API provides access to a comprehensive set of data that can be used to automate and streamline various aspects of a user's GitLab workflow.

How do I transfer data from Gitlab to S3?

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up Gitlab as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Set up S3 as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

What are top ETL tools to extract data from

The most prominent ETL tools to transfer data from Gitlab to S3 include:
- Airbyte
- Fivetran
- StitchData
- Matillion
- Talend Data Integration
These tools help in extracting data from Gitlab and various sources (APIs, databases, and more), transforming it efficiently, and loading it into S3 and other databases, data warehouses and data lakes, enhancing data management capabilities.

What is ELT?

ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.

Difference between ETL and ELT?

ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
