TL;DR

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 Dixa as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
  2. set up DuckDB 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.

This tutorial’s purpose is to show you how.

What is Dixa

Dixa is the customer service platform that has everything you need for connected experiences. Dixa is also a conversational customer engagement software that connects brands with customers through real-time communication. It is The Customer Friendship Platform that helps brands to build stronger bonds with their customers and eliminate bad customer service through unifying all communication channels and customer data in one platform. Dixa is a rapid growing multichannel customer service software which provides the best experience for agents and customers alike.

What is DuckDB

DuckDB is an in-process SQL OLAP database management system. It has strong support for SQL. DuckDB is borrowing the SQLite shell implementation. Each database is a single file on disk. It’s analogous to “ SQLite for analytical (OLAP) workloads” (direct comparison on the SQLite vs DuckDB paper here), whereas SQLite is for OLTP ones. But it can handle vast amounts of data locally. It’s the smaller, lighter version of Apache Druid and other OLAP technologies.

Prerequisites

  1. A Dixa account to transfer your customer data automatically from.
  2. A DuckDB account.
  3. An active Airbyte Cloud account, or you can also choose to use Airbyte Open Source locally. You can follow the instructions to set up Airbyte on your system using docker-compose.

Airbyte is an open-source data integration platform that consolidates and streamlines the process of extracting and loading data from multiple data sources to data warehouses. It offers pre-built connectors, including Dixa and DuckDB, for seamless data migration.

When using Airbyte to move data from Dixa to DuckDB, it extracts data from Dixa using the source connector, converts it into a format DuckDB can ingest using the provided schema, and then loads it into DuckDB via the destination connector. This allows businesses to leverage their Dixa data for advanced analytics and insights within DuckDB, simplifying the ETL process and saving significant time and resources.

Step 1: Set up Dixa as a source connector

1. First, navigate to the Dixa source connector page on Airbyte.com.
2. Click on the "Create a new connection" button.
3. Enter a name for your connection and click "Next".
4. Enter your Dixa API credentials, including your API key and API secret.
5. Click "Test" to ensure that your credentials are correct and that Airbyte can connect to your Dixa account.
6. Once the test is successful, click "Next".
7. Select the data you want to replicate from Dixa, such as conversations, customers, or agents.
8. Choose the replication frequency and the initial replication start date.
9. Click "Create connection" to save your settings and start replicating data from Dixa to Airbyte. 10. You can monitor the progress of your replication in the Airbyte dashboard and view the data in your destination data warehouse or data lake.

Step 2: Set up DuckDB as a destination connector

1. Open the Airbyte platform and navigate to the "Destinations" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
2. Click on the "Add Destination" button located in the top right corner of the screen.
3. Scroll down the list of available destinations until you find "DuckDB" and click on it.
4. Fill in the required information for your DuckDB database, including the host, port, database name, username, and password.
5. Test the connection to ensure that the information you provided is correct and that Airbyte can successfully connect to your DuckDB database.
6. If the connection is successful, click on the "Save" button to save your DuckDB destination connector.
7. You can now use this connector to transfer data from your source connectors to your DuckDB database. Simply select the DuckDB destination connector when setting up your data integration pipelines in Airbyte.

Step 3: Set up a connection to sync your Dixa data to DuckDB

Once you've successfully connected Dixa as a data source and DuckDB as a destination in Airbyte, you can set up a data pipeline between them with the following steps:

  1. Create a new connection: On the Airbyte dashboard, navigate to the 'Connections' tab and click the '+ New Connection' button.
  2. Choose your source: Select Dixa from the dropdown list of your configured sources.
  3. Select your destination: Choose DuckDB from the dropdown list of your configured destinations.
  4. Configure your sync: Define the frequency of your data syncs based on your business needs. Airbyte allows both manual and automatic scheduling for your data refreshes.
  5. Select the data to sync: Choose the specific Dixa objects you want to import data from towards DuckDB. You can sync all data or select specific tables and fields.
  6. Select the sync mode for your streams: Choose between full refreshes or incremental syncs (with deduplication if you want), and this for all streams or at the stream level. Incremental is only available for streams that have a primary cursor.
  7. Test your connection: Click the 'Test Connection' button to make sure that your setup works. If the connection test is successful, save your configuration.
  8. Start the sync: If the test passes, click 'Set Up Connection'. Airbyte will start moving data from Dixa to DuckDB according to your settings.

Remember, Airbyte keeps your data in sync at the frequency you determine, ensuring your DuckDB data warehouse is always up-to-date with your Dixa data.

Use Cases to transfer your Dixa data to DuckDB

Integrating data from Dixa to DuckDB provides several benefits. Here are a few use cases:

  1. Advanced Analytics: DuckDB’s powerful data processing capabilities enable you to perform complex queries and data analysis on your Dixa data, extracting insights that wouldn't be possible within Dixa alone.
  2. Data Consolidation: If you're using multiple other sources along with Dixa, syncing to DuckDB allows you to centralize your data for a holistic view of your operations, and to set up a change data capture process so you never have any discrepancies in your data again.
  3. Historical Data Analysis: Dixa has limits on historical data. Syncing data to DuckDB allows for long-term data retention and analysis of historical trends over time.
  4. Data Security and Compliance: DuckDB provides robust data security features. Syncing Dixa data to DuckDB ensures your data is secured and allows for advanced data governance and compliance management.
  5. Scalability: DuckDB can handle large volumes of data without affecting performance, providing an ideal solution for growing businesses with expanding Dixa data.
  6. Data Science and Machine Learning: By having Dixa data in DuckDB, you can apply machine learning models to your data for predictive analytics, customer segmentation, and more.
  7. Reporting and Visualization: While Dixa provides reporting tools, data visualization tools like Tableau, PowerBI, Looker (Google Data Studio) can connect to DuckDB, providing more advanced business intelligence options. If you have a Dixa table that needs to be converted to a DuckDB table, Airbyte can do that automatically.

Wrapping Up

To summarize, this tutorial has shown you how to:

  1. Configure a Dixa account as an Airbyte data source connector.
  2. Configure DuckDB as a data destination connector.
  3. Create an Airbyte data pipeline that will automatically be moving data directly from Dixa to DuckDB after you set a schedule

With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
