Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Matillion is being used by Data Engineering, which is a part of the Purple Analytics department. No other departments are using it. Matillion helps us automate our data pipelines. It gives us a platform on which we can schedule Python scripts, and provides an easy workspace where we can design and implement our workflows. The Matillion server is easy to maintain, which was a problem before we switched from our previous platform. Matillion makes it easy to perform ETL operations on our data, whether it starts in our data warehouse or not. It gives us plenty of flexibility in how we design our jobs. And it's super easy to use.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We still have an old-fashioned process in our monolith environment to extract-transform-load from a SQL server data store. Currently the monolith is the main product of the CM brand and is still being heavily maintained. The way we are moving forward is to "unlock" the data from its current storage in order to have better analytics using event streaming. For the time being, the only way we are able to extract large amounts of data from our relational SQL data store is using the ETL process through Matillion into our data warehouse solution in Redshift.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Here at ReportGarden, we use Matillion to fetch data from multiple databases and construct a compact and easily referable database using various data blending techniques with the help of various blocks like Python script, SQL, joins, etc. We use the combination of SNS and Lambda to make sure tasks run seamlessly every day and to stop EC2 instances once tasks are done, which is of great use in saving unnecessary costs.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Matillion for one project. I use Matillion to solve my data loading issue because Matillion supports many data sources. I use this to aggregate all the data sources to my data warehouse. Before using Matillion, I needed to write my own data loader, which was very time consuming and created a lot of stability issues. By using Matillion, I can load my data within an hour to my warehouse.

It's being used by our BI team, to ingest data into our Data Warehouse and distribute primarily to clients via Tableau, GSheets, emails, SFTP, etc. We also use it internally. Almost all our usage is for loading data although we use some transformation components when bringing in semi-structured data. Our team supports the entire organization.
