All your pipelines in minutes, however custom they are, thanks to Airbyte’s connector marketplace and AI Connector Builder.

Start syncing with Airbyte in 3 easy steps within 10 minutes

Set up a Yotpo connector in Airbyte

Connect to Yotpo or one of 400+ pre-built or 10,000+ custom connectors through simple account authentication.

Set up S3 Glue for your extracted Yotpo data

Select S3 Glue where you want to import data from your Yotpo source to. You can also choose other cloud data warehouses, databases, data lakes, vector databases, or any other supported Airbyte destinations.

Configure the Yotpo to S3 Glue in Airbyte

This includes selecting the data you want to extract - streams and columns -, the sync frequency, where in the destination you want that data to be loaded.

How to Sync Yotpo to S3 Glue Manually

Begin by utilizing Yotpo's API to extract the necessary data. Yotpo provides RESTful APIs that allow you to retrieve data related to reviews, customer interactions, and more. Authenticate your requests using your Yotpo API key and secret. Use tools such as `curl` or HTTP libraries in Python (like `requests`) to make GET requests to the Yotpo API endpoints and download the data in JSON format.

Once you've extracted the data, it is often necessary to transform it into a format suitable for storage and processing. Use a scripting language like Python to parse the JSON data and transform it into CSV or Parquet format, which are commonly used formats for data storage and processing in AWS environments. Ensure your script handles any nested structures in the JSON appropriately.

Install and configure the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) on your local machine. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to upload files to your S3 bucket. You can configure the AWS CLI by running `aws configure` and providing your AWS Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, default region, and output format.

Use the AWS CLI to upload your transformed data files to an Amazon S3 bucket. Execute a command like `aws s3 cp local_file_path s3://your-bucket-name/your-folder/` to upload a file. Ensure the bucket policies and permissions allow for data writing and access as needed.

In the AWS Management Console, navigate to AWS Glue and set up a new database in the Glue Data Catalog. This database will store metadata about your datasets. Define the tables based on the schema of your transformed data files. You can manually define the schema or use AWS Glue's schema inference capabilities.

Set up a Glue Crawler to automate the process of cataloging the data in your S3 bucket. Specify the S3 path to your data files and associate the crawler with the Glue database you created. Run the crawler to populate the Glue Data Catalog with the table definitions, which will make your data queryable using AWS services like Athena.

Create AWS Glue ETL jobs to process the data further if needed. You can write ETL scripts using Python or Scala within the Glue console. These scripts can perform operations such as filtering, joining, and aggregating your data. Schedule the Glue job to run at desired intervals or trigger it manually as per your requirements. Upon completion, the processed data can be stored back into S3 or a database for further use.

By following these steps, you can efficiently transfer and process data from Yotpo to AWS S3 and utilize AWS Glue without relying on external connectors.

FAQs

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.

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 Yotpo to S3 Glue as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Choose a destination (more than 50 available destination databases, data warehouses or lakes) to sync data too and set it up as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer from Yotpo to S3 Glue and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

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.

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.
