Apache Airflow vs. Talend Data Fabric

For a quick job scanning of status and deep-diving into job issues, details, and flows, AirFlow does a good job. No fuss, no muss. The low learning curve as the UI is very straightforward, and navigating it will be familiar after spending some time using it. Our requirements are pretty simple. Job scheduler, workflows, and monitoring. The jobs we run are >100, but still is a lot to review and troubleshoot when jobs don't run. So when managing large jobs, AirFlow dated UI can be a bit of a drawback.

Truly trusted contact center where the effective solution is always guaranteed. It is not a one-off fix to a specific data integration or management problem. It is a permanent and scalable solution to manage all of your data under a unified environment. Easy to use, great performance, used it for our internal data warehouse. Easy to build and connect to our data sources such as Salesforce, Netsuite, and Marketo.

• In charge of the ETL processes.
• As there is no incoming or outgoing data, we may handle the scheduling of tasks as code and avoid the requirement for monitoring.

Incentivized

• It supports a wide variety of connectors (Systems/endpoints)
• It provides great flexibility for developers as it not only has a lot of predefined ready to use the function but also provides the ability to use complex java code within the platform. Great tool if you have good developers available.

Incentivized

• they should bring in some time based scheduling too not only event based
• they do not store the metadata due to which we are not able to analyze the workflows
• they only support python as of now for scripted pipeline writing

Incentivized

• The print and export functionality are missing in the Community version which frustrates a lot of our clients as well as internal users.
• The learning curve is very steep for all Talend products including DQ.
• Lack of easy to create workflows for jobs that can be repeated.

Lack of report export and publication! Steep learning curve!

At this moment the usability of Talend Data Quality is optimal, too bad I cannot say the same in the first three months, it was always a problem due to its steep learning curve, but what matters is being able to use it effectively at this precise moment.

Talend Data Quality gave us direct help in the learning process and prevented us from taking many more months to adapt and I appreciate this from the heart, I think that thanks to the support we can have very detailed reports that help increase the use of Talend Data Quality in the company.

There are a number of reasons to choose Apache Airflow over other similar platforms- Integrations—ready-to-use operators allow you to integrate Airflow with cloud platforms (Google, AWS, Azure, etc) Apache Airflow helps with backups and other DevOps tasks, such as submitting a Spark job and storing the resulting data on a Hadoop cluster It has machine learning model training, such as triggering a Sage maker job.

The engine with which it works to process a lot of information is striking, the comparison also being the connectors it has for different RDBMS, which other tools do not count as they are GNU licenses or community editions. The friendly and intuitive environment is what catches the eye. that's why I choose Talend over any other tool

Incentivized

• A lot of helpful features out-of-the-box, such as the DAG visualizations and task trees
• Allowed us to implement complex data pipelines easily and at a relatively low cost

Incentivized

• Definitely simplified the development efforts on our end in doing the data integration, saving lots of human hours.
• Small company, so cost could be a problem for these services, but works so far.
