ETL with Beam?
Hello, all. I still have not been given the tasking to convert my work
project to use Beam, but it is still something that I am looking to do in
the fairly near future. Our data workflow consists of ingest and
transformation, and I was hoping that there are ETL frameworks that work
well with Beam. Does anyone have some recommendations and maybe some
samples that show how people might use and ETL framework with Beam?
Thanks in advance and have a great day!

I am really interested to try a framework!
We are using beam directly for our ETL in production... and it is working
fine...
We use it with airflow... and so far so good...

But we write the code we need ourselves actually!

These can be externalized as PTransforms. E.g. the generic ETL
pipeline could just be written
pipeline
.appy(SomeExtractPTransform()) // aka Source
.apply(SomeTransformPTransform())
.apply(SomeLoadPTransform()) // aka Sink
Any and all of these PTransforms may be composite (i.e .composed of
smaller transforms). But perhaps I'm not quite following what you're
trying to say.

The real benefit of a good ETL framework is being able to externalize your
extraction and transformation mappings. If I didn't have to write that
part, that would be really cool!

I would like to call out that Beam itself can be directly used for
ETL, no extra framework required (not to say that both of these
frameworks don't provide additional value, e.g. GUI-style construction
of pipelines).

Hello! Talend has a big data ETL product in the cloud called Pipeline
Designer, entirely powered by Beam. There was a talk at Beam Summit
2018 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AlEGUtiQek), but unfortunately
the live demo wasn't captured in the video. You can find other videos
of Pipeline Designer online to see if it might fit your needs, and
there is a free trial! Depending on how your work project is
oriented, it may be of interest.
Best regards, Ryan

Thank you for your reply. I will check it out! I'm in the evaluation
phase, especially since I have some time before I have to implement all of
this.

I'm not sure if this will help but kettle runs on beam too.

Depends on your use case but kettle rocks for etl.
