Fivetran: automated data pipelines to your warehouse (ELT)
Discover Fivetran, the platform that automates centralising your data
Fivetran is a data integration (ELT) platform that automatically replicates data from your applications, databases and APIs into your data warehouse.
Your CRM data, payment transactions, ERP, production databases: Fivetran syncs them continuously into BigQuery, Snowflake or Databricks, without writing or maintaining a single line of pipeline code. Your data team focuses on analysis, not plumbing.
Fivetran is built around four functional pillars:
From source to warehouse, every step of ingestion is automated.
1. Managed connectors: hundreds of ready-to-use sources
Every connector is built, tested and maintained by Fivetran, not by your team.
- Connect your SaaS applications, databases and APIs in a few clicks
- Get normalised, documented schemas ready for analysis
- Let Fivetran absorb vendors' API changes for you
- Add new sources without launching a technical project each time
2. Automated syncing: data that is always fresh
Once a connector is enabled, replication runs continuously with no intervention.
- Sync incrementally so only what changed gets replicated
- Handle source schema changes automatically
- Tune sync frequency to the needs of each source
- Monitor pipeline health with built-in logs and alerts
3. Analytical destinations: your warehouse as the single hub
Fivetran loads data where your analysts already work.
- Feed the leading cloud warehouses: BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks
- Centralise all your sources in a single analytical repository
- Keep data history to analyse trends over time
- Build your BI dashboards on up-to-date data
4. Transformations: data ready for the business
After loading, Fivetran orchestrates data preparation inside the warehouse.
- Orchestrate your dbt models directly from the platform
- Trigger transformations as soon as new data lands
- Start from ready-made data models for common sources
- Document data lineage from source to dashboard
