"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."

Chase Zieman

“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”

Rupak Patel
"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."
First, ensure you have an AWS account. Set up an S3 bucket where the data will be stored and configure AWS IAM roles with the necessary permissions for accessing S3 and running AWS Glue jobs. Make sure the IAM role has permissions like `AmazonS3FullAccess` and `AWSGlueServiceRole`.
Sign up for a CoinMarketCap account and subscribe to an API plan that fits your needs. Once done, obtain your API key from the CoinMarketCap dashboard. This API key will be required to authenticate requests to the CoinMarketCap API to fetch cryptocurrency data.
Write a Python script to fetch data from the CoinMarketCap API. Use the `requests` library to make API calls. The script should handle authentication using your API key, construct the request to fetch the desired cryptocurrency data, and handle responses, including error checking.
```python
import requests
def fetch_data(api_key):
url = "https://pro-api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/cryptocurrency/listings/latest"
headers = {
'Accepts': 'application/json',
'X-CMC_PRO_API_KEY': api_key,
}
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
if response.status_code == 200:
return response.json()
else:
raise Exception(f"Failed to fetch data: {response.status_code}")
data = fetch_data('your_api_key_here')
```
Once the data is fetched, transform it into a format suitable for storage in S3, such as CSV or JSON. Use Python libraries like `pandas` for data manipulation. For instance, convert the JSON response into a Pandas DataFrame and then save it as a CSV file.
```python
import pandas as pd
def transform_data(json_data):
df = pd.json_normalize(json_data['data'])
df.to_csv('/tmp/cryptocurrency_data.csv', index=False)
transform_data(data)
```
Utilize `boto3`, the AWS SDK for Python, to upload the transformed data file to your specified S3 bucket. Ensure the IAM role used has the necessary permissions to perform this operation.
```python
import boto3
def upload_to_s3(file_name, bucket, object_name=None):
s3_client = boto3.client('s3')
try:
s3_client.upload_file(file_name, bucket, object_name or file_name)
print(f"File uploaded to S3: {bucket}/{object_name or file_name}")
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error uploading to S3: {e}")
upload_to_s3('/tmp/cryptocurrency_data.csv', 'your-s3-bucket-name', 'crypto/cryptocurrency_data.csv')
```
In the AWS Glue console, create a new Glue job. Configure it to use a Python shell script that you have written for data extraction, transformation, and loading. Set up the job with the appropriate IAM role and specify any necessary configurations, such as memory and timeout settings.
Use AWS Glue’s scheduling capabilities to automate the execution of your job at desired intervals (e.g., daily). Monitor the job execution through the AWS Glue console to ensure it runs successfully and troubleshoot any errors that arise. Use CloudWatch for logging and alerts to maintain oversight of your data pipeline.
By following these steps, you can effectively move data from CoinMarketCap to S3 using AWS Glue 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.
"CoinMarketCap is the world's most-referenced price-tracking website for cryptoassets in the quick growing cryptocurrency space. CoinMarketCap has been the premier price-tracking website for cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrency market capitalization is a simple, straightforward way of searching out how big a digital currency is and it can assist you make smarter. It is an online resource for cryptocurrency market capitalization, volume and liquidity data. Coinmarketcap is the authority when it comes to tracking cryptocurrency prices in real time. "
CoinMarketCap's API provides access to a wide range of data related to cryptocurrencies and their markets. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through the API:
1. Cryptocurrency data: This includes information about individual cryptocurrencies such as their name, symbol, market cap, circulating supply, total supply, and maximum supply.
2. Market data: This includes data related to the cryptocurrency markets such as the current price, trading volume, and market capitalization of individual cryptocurrencies.
3. Exchange data: This includes data related to cryptocurrency exchanges such as the trading pairs available, trading volume, and price information.
4. Historical data: This includes historical price and volume data for individual cryptocurrencies and the overall cryptocurrency market.
5. News data: This includes news articles related to cryptocurrencies and the blockchain industry.
6. Social data: This includes data related to social media activity such as the number of mentions and sentiment analysis for individual cryptocurrencies.
7. Blockchain data: This includes data related to the blockchain such as the number of transactions, block height, and mining difficulty.
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.
