Begin by exporting your data from Drift. Log into your Drift account, navigate to the analytics or data export section, and select the specific data sets you need. Export these data sets in a common format such as CSV or JSON, which can be easily processed and imported into other systems.
Once you have your data exported, prepare it for transfer. This may involve cleaning the data to remove any unnecessary fields, ensuring data consistency, and formatting it to match the schema requirements of Starburst Galaxy. Use tools like Excel or text editors to make necessary adjustments.
Log into your Starburst Galaxy account and set up the necessary environment where the data will be imported. This involves creating the required databases, tables, and schemas that will store the incoming data. Ensure that these structures are ready to accommodate the data format you prepared in the previous step.
Utilize Starburst Galaxy's SQL capabilities to import the data. Write SQL scripts to load the data from your local file system (where the exported data is stored) into the Starburst Galaxy tables. Use SQL commands like `COPY`, `INSERT`, or `LOAD` depending on the specific capabilities and syntax of Starburst Galaxy for importing data.
Transfer the prepared data files to a location accessible by Starburst Galaxy. This could be a cloud storage location or a local path if Starburst Galaxy supports local file access. Ensure that the access permissions are correctly set so that Starburst Galaxy can read the data files without any issues.
After importing the data into Starburst Galaxy, verify the integrity of the data. Run queries to check for consistency and accuracy, and ensure that all records have been transferred correctly. Compare a subset of the data from Drift with the imported data to confirm successful migration.
Finally, optimize and index the imported data in Starburst Galaxy for performance. Create necessary indexes and optimize the database structure to ensure efficient querying and data retrieval. Regular maintenance and optimization help in maintaining the performance of the database with the newly imported data.
Following these steps will help you successfully move data from Drift to Starburst Galaxy 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.
Advertised as the “First and only revenue acceleration platform,” Drift provides an array of conversational tools in one place.

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.
