Sources

Data sources are the cornerstone of any lakehouse project, serving as the foundation upon which insights and analyses are built. We want you to gain insights from every aspect of your company’s data landscape. Whether it’s files, programs, or any other data-generating entity, we’re here to help you harness it all.

​

How do sources work in a lakehouse structure?

Setting up your Lakehouse for analysis begins with identifying and connecting your data sources. Therefore, identifying your data sources is the very beginning to your lakehouse project.

Let’s consider you already understood that analysing your data will bring advantages for your business. Now, you have to list the systems, files and everything related to your processes that can generate the data you need to answer your questions. Remember they might come from internal systems, external integrations, and more.

​

Which sources can I connect to?

Nekt endeavours to ensure your lakehouse will contain all the data you need regardless of the source, which means you’ll probably be able to connect to any data source you have! Of course, it sometimes depends on your systems availability to export data but we’ll definitely be able to check it out for you and bring a solution together if needed. Through nekt.app you’re currently* able to connect CSV files with autonomy. If you want a different data source, you can reach out to us and we’ll happily work on it.

*We’re working to give you athonomy with more sources. We’ll let you know as we have updates :)
