Immediate ROI and productivity gains for your data teams.
"With our legacy framework, if one of the pipelines fails for one client, it will stop everything for the rest of our clients. But with Airbyte, things are run in parallel because of the platform’s distributed nature, which means that we can process multiple clients at the same time without impacting performance."
Raman Singh, Tech Lead at Symend
"The real ROI is in our ability to iterate quickly, especially at our increasing scale. At the end of the day, you want a tool like that to just work. We can forget about it and know that it's configured and it's connecting and it's working. That hands-free capability is a big appeal for the platform.”
Sean Carver, Director of Data at Petvisor
"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."
Andre Exner, Director of Customer Hub and Common Analytics
"What's different from Stitch Data or Informatica is the way that we can configure Airbyte connections and Airbyte entities through code. That's a huge plus to us as data engineers, because we are used to checking code and being able to manage changes from Github."
Amy Zhao, Senior Manager of Data Engineering at Peloton
"Airbyte allows us to stay flexible while scaling from hundred-million to billion-dollar enterprise clients."
Franziska Ibscher, Product Manager at Drivepoint
FAQs
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.
Taking the customer relationship management (CRM) platform up a notch, Zendesk Sunshine makes it possible for businesses to connect the dots to build the full picture of their customer from data anywhere. Offering much more than the old legacy CRM platform, Zendesk Sunshine takes a new and more modern approach, native to AWS, that provides the tools needed for developers and admins to create superior customer experiences.

Structured data: This includes data that is organized into tables with defined columns and data types, such as CSV, JSON, and Avro files.
2
Semi-structured data: This includes data that has some structure, but not necessarily a fixed schema, such as XML and JSON files.
3
Unstructured data: This includes data that has no predefined structure, such as text, images, and videos.
4
Time-series data: This includes data that is organized by time, such as stock prices, weather data, and sensor readings.
5
Geospatial data: This includes data that is related to geographic locations, such as maps, GPS coordinates, and spatial databases.
6
Machine learning data: This includes data that is used to train machine learning models, such as labeled datasets and feature vectors.
7
Streaming data: This includes data that is generated in real-time, such as social media feeds, IoT sensor data, and log files.
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:

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.
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.
