Data ingestion
Data ingestion is the process of moving or replicating data from data sources to destination. Zenskar can ingest your data in the following ways:
- Data Sources:
- Raw Metrics:
| Data-ingestion method | Details |
|---|---|
| Data ingestion via data-source connectors | Zenskar can pull data from your data infrastructure using data-source-specific connectors. Zenskar connects with your data sources, such as databases, data warehouses, comma-separated-value files, and spreadsheets. Subsequently, we move or replicate (pull) the data on our data infrastructure (destination) for further processing. |
| Data ingestion via APIs | You can push data to Zenskar by creating raw-metric APIs in Zenskar and integrating these APIs in your application workflow. Further, Zenskar exposes APIs to view or manipulate other kinds of data, such as customers, contracts, and invoices. You can use these APIs to push data from your application to Zenskar. |
| Upload Zenskar-compatible CSV | Zenskar allows you to upload a Zenskar-compatible CSV. |
| Web form | Zenskar provides you a web form to enter raw metrics manually. |
Note
Zenskar stores all ingested data in the form of RDBMS tables. This is true irrespective of the ingestion method: push or pull.
Tables are database objects that contain all the data in a database. In tables, data is logically organized in a row-and-column format similar to a spreadsheet.
