Retail-Data-Pipeline

walmartecomm

This repository contains the code and documentation for a robust data pipeline that ingests, transforms, and loads retail data from various sources into a data warehouse. The pipeline is built using popular open-source tools and frameworks, making it scalable and easy to maintain.

Key Features

  • Data Ingestion: Supports ingestion from multiple data sources, including CSV files, SQL databases, and APIs.
  • Data Transformation: Applies a series of transformations to clean, enrich, and standardize the data using Apache Spark.
  • Data Loading: Loads the transformed data into a data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift) for analysis and reporting.
  • Orchestration: Uses Apache Airflow to orchestrate the end-to-end data pipeline, ensuring reliable and scheduled execution.
  • Monitoring and Alerting: Implements comprehensive monitoring and alerting to proactively detect and address pipeline issues.
  • Scalability: Designed to handle growing data volumes and adapt to changing business requirements.

Getting Started

To get started with the Retail Data Pipeline, please follow these steps:

  1. Prerequisites:

    • Install Docker and Docker Compose on your local machine.
    • Ensure you have access to the necessary data sources (e.g., SQL databases, APIs) and a data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift).
  2. Clone the Repository:

    git clone https://github.com/MuziZwane/Retail-Data-Pipeline.git
    cd Retail-Data-Pipeline
    
  3. Configure the Pipeline:

    • Update the config.py file with your data source and data warehouse credentials and settings.
    • Customize the data transformation logic in the transform.py file to meet your specific requirements.
  4. Deploy the Pipeline:

    docker-compose up -d
    

    This will start the Airflow webserver and scheduler, as well as the other services required for the pipeline.

  5. Monitor the Pipeline:

    • Access the Airflow webUI at http://localhost:8080 and observe the pipeline's execution.
    • Configure email or Slack alerts to receive notifications about pipeline failures or other critical events.
