How to load data from Linnworks to Databricks Lakehouse

Learn how to use Airbyte to synchronize your Linnworks data into Databricks Lakehouse within minutes.

Building your pipeline or Using Airbyte

Airbyte is the only open source solution empowering data teams  to meet all their growing custom business demands in the new AI era.

Building in-house pipelines

Bespoke pipelines are:
  • Inconsistent and inaccurate data
  • Laborious and expensive
  • Brittle and inflexible
Furthermore, you will need to build and maintain Y x Z pipelines with Y sources and Z destinations to cover all your needs.

After Airbyte

Airbyte connections are:
  • Reliable and accurate
  • Extensible and scalable for all your needs
  • Deployed and governed your way
All your pipelines in minutes, however custom they are, thanks to Airbyte’s connector marketplace and AI Connector Builder.

How to Sync to Manually

Step 1: Export Data from Linnworks

Begin by manually exporting the data you need from Linnworks. Log into your Linnworks account and navigate to the inventory or order management sections. Utilize the export functionality to download your data in a CSV or Excel format. Ensure that the exported data is complete and matches your requirements for analysis.

Step 2: Prepare Data for Upload

Once you have your data exported, review and clean it if necessary. Check for any inconsistencies, missing values, or errors. Convert the data into a CSV format if it is not already in one, as CSV is a widely accepted format for data ingestion. Ensure your CSV files are appropriately named and organized.

Step 3: Set Up Access to Databricks Lakehouse

Access your Databricks Lakehouse environment. If you haven't already, set up a Databricks account and create a workspace. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to create databases, upload files, and execute notebook commands within your Databricks environment.

Step 4: Upload Data to Databricks File System (DBFS)

Use the Databricks web interface to upload your CSV files to the Databricks File System (DBFS). In the Databricks workspace, navigate to the ”˜Data’ section and select ”˜Add Data’. Follow the prompts to upload your CSV files. DBFS acts as a distributed file system that allows you to easily store and access data.

Step 5: Create a Databricks Notebook

Create a new notebook in Databricks to read and process your uploaded CSV files. You can use Python, Scala, or SQL to perform data operations. Begin by writing code to read the CSV files from DBFS using a Spark DataFrame. Ensure the notebook is well-documented with comments for clarity.

Step 6: Transform and Clean Data in Databricks

Utilize the capabilities of Apache Spark within your notebook to transform and clean the data. Perform necessary operations such as filtering, aggregating, or joining datasets to shape your data for analysis. Use Spark SQL or DataFrame operations to manipulate your data efficiently.

Step 7: Store Data in Databricks Lakehouse Tables

After processing your data, store it in Databricks Lakehouse tables for persistent storage and further analysis. Use the `write` method in Spark to save your DataFrame as a delta table or any other supported table format. You can specify partitioning and other storage optimizations during this step to enhance performance.

By following these steps, you can move data from Linnworks to Databricks Lakehouse manually, ensuring you have full control over each stage of the process without relying on third-party connectors.
