Pipeline Management
Pipeline management is reliable, easy, and flexible with Etleap ETL.
Data Ops: The Etleap Way
Reliable
Etleap is built to handle the expected and the unexpected, preempting known issues and minimizing impact when new problems arise.
Easy-to-Use
At each stage of the data ops workflow, Etleap ETL provides easy setup and guides users to clear issue resolution.
Flexible
Etleap ETL has the flexibility to meet every customer’s dynamic data environment and unique needs.
Reliable
Ready for the expected and the unexpected
Etleap ensures reliable data ops in two key ways:
Incorporating a wealth of ETL
troubleshooting experience
into the product
Rapidly detecting and
minimizing the impact of
new, fringe issues

Managing data pipelines is a frustrating endeavor. Between infrastructure scaling, API details, source changes, and more, there are countless causes of pipeline failure. Manually writing code to preempt these known issues is a huge, error-prone undertaking.
Etleap ETL customers, on the other hand, increase pipeline uptime and reduce their dependence on internal, specialized ETL developers.
Etleap ETL has automatic detection and guided solutions for these known pipeline challenges, and Etleap’s engineering team constantly incorporates new ones as well.
Architected for the unknown
What about the corner cases? With the large variety of data sources and dynamic data volumes and velocity, it’s often issues that have never been seen before that cause everyday pipeline failures. Etleap ETL minimizes the impact of potential issues, detects them quickly when they do occur, and then mitigates them efficiently.
-
Minimize Impact
Etleap ETL's architecture is built with pipeline independence - an issue with one pipeline doesn't affect the operation of another. Examples include separate runtime environments per pipeline and automatic compute scaling in response to increased load of a single pipeline.
-
Detect Quickly
In the era of continuous rather than daily ETL, pipeline monitoring requires more sophistication. For instance, different approaches are needed to detect issues with a low-latency Kafka stream than a periodic pull from Google Analytics’ API. Etleap ETL’s monitoring is built to detect issues as soon as they occur and minimize false positives.
-
Mitigate Efficiently
Tons of data pipeline instrumentation helps Etleap's team get to the bottom of issues quickly. Perhaps delays are caused by contention from an external process in the destination warehouse or maybe errors are caused by an unannounced API change. Etleap engineers can quickly diagnose these and resolve them accordingly.

Effortless Data Ops
An easier path to monitoring, alerting, and issue resolution
Like many ops functions, Data Ops can be framed into three distinct components: Monitoring, Alerting, and Resolution. These steps can quickly consume the time of multiple data engineers as the volume and complexity of data sources and pipelines increase.
Etleap ETL makes it easy to create pipelines and, just as importantly, it boosts Data Ops productivity. Monitoring and alerting are robust and configurable to meet each customer’s needs. Fast resolution of a single pipeline issue can eliminate hours or even days of engineering effort. Etleap automates many solutions and delivers easy-to-follow guidance when user action is needed.

Data Ops that fits each customer’s unique needs
While automation delivers much of the value behind Etleap ETL Data Ops, that does not make it a rigid black box. Etleap ETL is configurable, extensible, and adaptable to match customers’ environments.
-
Configure
Customers can configure Etleap ETL to manage how much manual intervention they want in the Data Ops workflow. For example, users can engage with every parsing error and make case-by-case decisions on schema changes. Alternatively, they can raise the error threshold for alerting and choose rules for handling schema changes.
-
Extend
Customers’ data pipelines often connect with separate processes and teams. Etleap ETL provides extensibility through APIs and events to support use cases like user-defined quality checks and CI/CD workflows.
-
Adapt
Etleap ETL is built to adapt to the dynamic conditions of modern data environments, where changing data structures and volumes require data destinations and infrastructure to adjust seamlessly.
Customer Case Studies
-
We’re a small data team at Sauce, but there’s a team at Etleap that I can interact with and get stuff done. We haven’t had to hire more data engineers to do the work of maintaining pipelines.

Just as we’ve moved from on-prem to AWS because we don’t want to be in the business of building data centers, we’re leveraging Etleap because we don’t want to be in the business of building data pipelines.
