What our users say


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


“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.”

"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 exporting the data from your Elasticsearch cluster. Use the Elasticsearch Scroll API to efficiently handle large datasets. The Scroll API is designed to retrieve large amounts of data in a paginated manner. Write a script to iterate through the data and store it in a format that can be easily transferred, such as JSON or CSV files.
Prepare a temporary storage location to hold the exported Elasticsearch data. This could be a cloud storage service like AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, or a local file system that Databricks can access. Ensure that this location is configured with the appropriate permissions for both reading and writing data.
Transfer the exported data from your local environment (or wherever the data is currently stored) to the chosen temporary storage location. Use secure transfer protocols like SCP, SFTP, or the native upload tools provided by your cloud storage service to ensure data integrity during the transfer.
Log into your Databricks account and create a new cluster if one does not already exist. Configure the cluster with the necessary compute resources based on the size of the data and the complexity of the transformations you plan to perform.
In Databricks, use Spark to access the data stored in your temporary storage location. This can be done using the appropriate Spark APIs, such as `spark.read.csv()` for CSV files or `spark.read.json()` for JSON files. Configure the access credentials and paths to correctly point to the files stored in the temporary location.
Once the data is loaded into Databricks, perform any necessary transformations or cleansing operations using PySpark or Spark SQL. This might include operations such as filtering, joining, or aggregating data to prepare it for analysis.
Finally, write the transformed data into your Databricks Lakehouse. Use Spark’s `write` methods to save the data in a format optimized for analysis, such as Delta Lake format. Specify the desired partitioning and bucketing to optimize query performance, and ensure data is stored in the correct location within your Lakehouse architecture.
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.
Elasticsearch is a distributed search and analytics engine for all types of data. Elasticsearch is the central component of the ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana).
Elasticsearch's API provides access to a wide range of data types, including:
1. Textual data: Elasticsearch can index and search through large volumes of textual data, including documents, emails, and web pages.
2. Numeric data: Elasticsearch can store and search through numeric data, including integers, floats, and dates.
3. Geospatial data: Elasticsearch can store and search through geospatial data, including latitude and longitude coordinates.
4. Structured data: Elasticsearch can store and search through structured data, including JSON, XML, and CSV files.
5. Unstructured data: Elasticsearch can store and search through unstructured data, including images, videos, and audio files.
6. Log data: Elasticsearch can store and search through log data, including server logs, application logs, and system logs.
7. Metrics data: Elasticsearch can store and search through metrics data, including performance metrics, network metrics, and system metrics.
8. Machine learning data: Elasticsearch can store and search through machine learning data, including training data, model data, and prediction data.
Overall, Elasticsearch's API provides access to a wide range of data types, making it a powerful tool for data analysis and search.
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.
