"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by configuring access to your Azure Storage Account. You'll need the account name and access key to authenticate and connect to Azure Table Storage. This can be done using Azure's SDKs, which provide the necessary functionality to interact with Azure services programmatically.
Use the Azure SDK for your preferred programming language (such as Python, Java, or .NET) to query and retrieve data from your Azure Table Storage. Ensure you handle pagination if your table contains a large amount of data. The retrieved data can be stored temporarily in memory or written to a file depending on the size and your system's capabilities.
Set up Apache Iceberg within your environment. This involves installing the necessary libraries and dependencies. You can do this by including Iceberg as a dependency in your project using build tools like Maven or Gradle for Java projects or by using pip for Python.
Define the schema for your Iceberg table. This schema should match the structure of your data retrieved from Azure Table Storage. Identify the data types and ensure compatibility between the source data and Iceberg's supported data types.
Convert the data retrieved from Azure Table Storage into a format compatible with Apache Iceberg. This typically involves transforming the data into Parquet files, as Iceberg is optimized for this file format. Use libraries like Apache Arrow for in-memory data transformation and serialization.
Load the transformed data into the Iceberg table. Use Iceberg’s API or SQL-based interface (like Apache Spark with Iceberg support) to write the data. Ensure the data is correctly partitioned and indexed as per your query performance requirements.
After loading the data, perform validation checks to ensure data integrity and consistency. Query the Iceberg table to verify that the data matches the original data from Azure Table Storage. Check for any discrepancies and handle errors appropriately to ensure a successful data migration.
By following these steps, you can efficiently migrate data from Azure Table Storage to Apache Iceberg, maintaining control over the process without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
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.
Azure Table storage, which is a service that stores non-relational structured data in the cloud and it is well known as structured NoSQL data. Azure Table storage is a service that stores structured NoSQL data in the cloud, providing a key/attribute store with a schema less design. Azure Table storage is a very popular service used to store structured NoSQL data in the cloud, providing a Key/attribute store. One can use it to store large amounts of structured, non-relational data.
Azure Table Storage's API gives access to structured data in the form of tables. The tables are composed of rows and columns, and each row represents an entity. The API provides access to the following types of data:
1. Partition Key: A partition key is a property that is used to partition the data in a table. It is used to group related entities together.
2. Row Key: A row key is a unique identifier for an entity within a partition. It is used to retrieve a specific entity from the table.
3. Properties: Properties are the columns in a table. They represent the attributes of an entity and can be of different data types such as string, integer, boolean, etc.
4. Timestamp: The timestamp is a system-generated property that represents the time when an entity was last modified.
5. ETag: The ETag is a system-generated property that represents the version of an entity. It is used to implement optimistic concurrency control.
6. Query results: The API allows querying of the data in a table based on specific criteria. The query results can be filtered, sorted, and projected to retrieve only the required data.
Overall, Azure Table Storage's API provides access to structured data that can be used for various purposes such as storing configuration data, logging, and session state management.
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.
