I am trying to build a data lake by pulling data from multiple data sources ( custom-built tools, excel files, CSV files, etc) and use the data lake to generate dashboards.
My question is which is the best tool to do the following:
- Create pipelines to ingest the data from multiple sources into the data lake
- Help me in aggregating and filtering data available in the data lake.
- Create new reports by combining different data elements from the data lake.
I need to use only open-source tools for this activity.
I appreciate your valuable inputs and suggestions. Thanks in Advance.
Hi Karunakaran. I obviously have an interest here, as I work for the company, but the problem you are describing is one that Zetaris can solve. Talend is a good ETL product, and Dremio is a good data virtualization product, but the problem you are describing best fits a tool that can combine the five styles of data integration (bulk/batch data movement, data replication/data synchronization, message-oriented movement of data, data virtualization, and stream data integration). I may be wrong, but Zetaris is, to the best of my knowledge, the only product in the world that can do this. Zetaris is not a dashboarding tool - you would need to combine us with Tableau or Qlik or PowerBI (or whatever) - but Zetaris can consolidate data from any source and any location (structured, unstructured, on-prem or in the cloud) in real time to allow clients a consolidated view of whatever they want whenever they want it. Please take a look at www.zetaris.com for more information. I don't want to do a "hard sell", here, so I'll say no more! Warmest regards, Rod Beecham.
