    When you are dealing with a data warehouse and want to find an easy way to integrate applications and expose data in real-time, then IBM StreamSets is the best tool to go for. I'm using it for the same purpose in my applications. This tool will be well-suited for someone with a proper technical background. Though IBM StreamSets UI is mostly drag and drop, advanced configurations require technical expertise or support to do the initial setup.

    This tool fits all kinds of organizations and helps to integrate data between many applications. We can use this tool as data integration is a key feature for all organizations. It is also available in the cloud, which makes the integration more seamless. The firm can opt for the required tools when there are no data integration needs.

    • Talend Data Integration allows us to quickly build data integrations without a tremendous amount of custom coding (some Java and JavaScript knowledge is still required).
    • I like the UI and it's very intuitive. Jobs are visual, allowing the team members to see the flow of the data, without having to read through the Java code that is generated.
    • Dynamically table creation from new source.

    • Pricing for sure can be the area for improvement.
    • Real time processing is slow as compared to other tools like Abinitio.
    • While developing batches, it crashes a lot. It may be the issue with me, but I wanted to highlight it.

    IBM Stream sets has been a wonderful addition to our technology stack. It has helped in some of our initiatives such as data engineering, data integration for not only external customers but also for internal purposes. The tool has also helped on our use cases related to streaming data. Moving to another tool would require significant amount of work and time.

    Usability
    IBM
    The StreamSets platform is very easy to use and the interface is extremely intuitive. The drag-and-drop, low-code design makes it accessible for teams with varying technical skills, allowing us to quickly connect sources, define transformations, and deploy pipelines without heavy coding. StreamSets allows us to get started quickly and not have to worry about our pipelines breaking once they're built.

    We use Talend Data Integration day in and day out. It is the best and easiest tool to jump on to and use. We can build a basic integration super-fast. We could build basic integrations as fast as within the hour. It is also easy to build transformations and use Java to perform some operations.

    Streamsets support has improved a lot in the last couple of years. We had some challenges in the beginning with support, but now the quality of the support and the responsiveness to tickets are better. We have contacted support multiple times when it came to scenarios where the system was slow or the output as not as we expected

    Good support, specially when it relates to PROD environment. The support team has access to the product development team. Things are internally escalated to development team if there is a bug encountered. This helps the customer to get quick fix or patch designed for problem exceptions. I have also seen support showing their willingness to help develop custom connector for a newly available cloud based big data solution

    the IBM solution can be considered a good player in the specific perimeter of application because its main functionalities are working well, are easy to use, and complete. it allows also a good degree of freedom when it comes to personalization of pipelines and streams, and customization of data ingestion methodologies.

    In comparison with the other ETLs I used, Talend is more flexible than Data Services (where you cannot create complex commands). It is similar to Datastage speaking about commands and interfaces. It is more user-friendly than ODI, which has a metadata point of view on its own, while Talend is more classic. It has both on-prem and cloud approaches, while Matillion is only cloud-based.

    • It’s only been a positive RoI with Talend given we’ve interfaced large datasets between critical on-Prem and cloud-native apps to efficiently run our business operations.
    • 40K+ plots data, covering 1K+ crop varieties.
    • 3K+ Customer & their credit data, 3K+ product inventory & pricing.
