Streaming Big Data Files from Cloud Storage

Towards Data Science

This continues a series of posts on the topic of efficient ingestion of data from the cloud (e.g., Before we get started, let’s be clear…when using cloud storage, it is usually not recommended to work with files that are particularly large. during runtime to support varying data ingestion patterns.

Best Practices for Data Ingestion with Snowflake: Part 3 

Snowflake

Welcome to the third blog post in our series highlighting Snowflake’s data ingestion capabilities, covering the latest on Snowpipe Streaming (currently in public preview) and how streaming ingestion can accelerate data engineering on Snowflake. What is Snowpipe Streaming?

Real-Time Data Ingestion: Snowflake, Snowpipe and Rockset

Rockset

Although Snowflake is great at querying massive amounts of data, the database still needs to ingest this data. Data ingestion must be performant to handle large amounts of data. Without performant data ingestion, you run the risk of querying outdated values and returning irrelevant analytics.

Stream Rows and Kafka Topics Directly into Snowflake with Snowpipe Streaming

Snowflake

This solution is both scalable and reliable, as we have been able to effortlessly ingest upwards of 1GB/s throughput.” Rather than streaming data from source into cloud object stores then copying it to Snowflake, data is ingested directly into a Snowflake table to reduce architectural complexity and reduce end-to-end latency.

Introducing Compute-Compute Separation for Real-Time Analytics

Rockset

When you deconstruct the core database architecture, deep in the heart of it you will find a single component that is performing two distinct competing functions: real-time data ingestion and query serving. When data ingestion has a flash flood moment, your queries will slow down or time out making your application flaky.

The Race For Data Quality in a Medallion Architecture

DataKitchen

This foundational layer is a repository for various data types, from transaction logs and sensor data to social media feeds and system logs. By storing data in its native state in cloud storage solutions such as AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure ADLS, the Bronze layer preserves the full fidelity of the data.
