Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Dataprep and how it can transform your data extraction workflow.

Dataprep integrates with databases, data warehouses, cloud storage, and APIs by connecting to existing systems without requiring replacement. Data can be read from current sources, transformed, and written to current destinations through standard protocols and connectors.

Dataprep connects to relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle), cloud platforms (AWS S3, Azure, Google Cloud), data warehouses (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery), and file formats (CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, Parquet). Custom API connections are also supported.

Yes. Cloud-native architecture scales horizontally to process millions of rows, with datasets that exceed local memory handled through distributed processing. Performance does not degrade as data volume increases.

No. The conversational interface accepts natural language instructions, with technical operations generated automatically so users describe intent rather than writing code. This does not limit capability, as complex transformations, joins, and aggregations are supported through natural language.

General AI assistants process text rather than data at scale and lack the infrastructure for production data operations. Dataprep includes change data capture, data lineage tracking, validation frameworks, scheduled execution, and direct integration with enterprise data platforms as foundational capabilities.

Yes. Workflows are saved as recipes and scheduled to run automatically, with execution triggered by time intervals, file arrival, or API calls. Change data capture supports incremental updates, eliminating manual repetition of data preparation tasks.
