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 your data from Elasticsearch. You can use the `scroll` API to handle large datasets efficiently. Implement a script using Python or another language to iterate through the scrolls and write the data to a file format such as JSON or CSV. This ensures that you have a complete export of your data ready for transfer.
Once the data is exported, transform it into a format that is compatible with Starburst Galaxy. If your data is in JSON, you may need to flatten nested structures or convert it into a tabular format like CSV or Parquet. Use data transformation tools or scripts to clean and prepare the data for import.
Starburst Galaxy can read from various cloud storage solutions. Choose a cloud storage service such as AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage. Create a bucket or container where you will upload the transformed data. Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access and manage this storage.
Using the cloud provider's CLI tool or web interface, upload your transformed data files to the designated bucket or container. Ensure that the data is organized in a logical directory structure to facilitate efficient querying in Starburst Galaxy.
In Starburst Galaxy, configure a catalog to connect to your cloud storage. This involves setting up authentication using access keys or service accounts, and specifying the storage location in the catalog properties. Ensure that the connection is tested and verified to be working correctly.
Use the Starburst Galaxy SQL interface to define external tables that point to the data stored in your cloud storage. The SQL `CREATE TABLE` statement should specify the data format and location in the cloud storage. Carefully define the schema to match the structure of your transformed data.
Once your external tables are set up, run queries to ensure that the data has been correctly imported and is accessible. Validate data accuracy and completeness by running sample queries. Make any necessary adjustments to the table definitions or storage configurations to optimize performance and accuracy.
By following these steps, you can successfully move data from Elasticsearch 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.
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.
