A huge challenge with data analytics is that the data is all over the place and is in different formats . As a result, you often need to complete numerous integration activities before you can start to gain insights from your data. Data Fusion offers a one-stop-shop for all enterprise data integration activities including ingestion, ETL, ELT and Streaming and with an execution engine optimized for SLAs and cost. It is designed to make lives easier for ETL developers, data analysts, and data engineers on Google Cloud, Hybrid Cloud or Multi Cloud environments.?

Data Fusion is Google’s cloud native, fully managed, scalable? enterprise data integration platform. It enables bringing transactional, social or machine data in various formats from databases, applications, messaging systems, mainframes, files, SaaS and IoT devices, , offers an easy to use visual interface , and provides deployment capabilities to execute data pipelines on ephemeral or dedicated Dataproc clusters in Spark. Cloud Data Fusion is? powered by open source CDAP which makes the pipelines portable across Google Cloud or Hybrid or multi cloud environments..?

Data integration capabilities?

Data integration for optimized analytics and accelerated data transformations

• Data Fusion supports a broad set of more than 200 connectors and formats, which enables you to extract and blend data You can develop data? pipelines in a? visual environment to improve productivity. .?
• Data Fusion provides data wrangling capabilities to? prepare data and provides capabilities to operationalize the data wrangling to improve business IT collaboration?
• You can leverage the extensive REST API to design, automate, orchestrate and manage the lifecycle of the pipelines .
• Data Fusion supports all data delivery modes including batch, streaming or? real-time making it a comprehensive platform to address both batch and streaming related use cases.
• It provides operational insights so that you can monitor data integration processes. Manage SLA’s and help optimize and fine tune integration jobs.?
• Data Fusion provides capabilities to parse and enrich unstructured data using Cloud AI, for example, converting audio files to text, applying NLP to detect sentiment, or extracting features from images and documents or converting HL7 to FHIR formats

Data consistency

Data Fusion builds confidence in business decision-making with advanced data consistency features:?

• Data Fusion minimizes the risk of mistakes by providing structured ways of specifying transformations, data quality checks with Wrangler, and predefined directives.
• Data Fusion helps identify quality issues by keeping track of profiles of the data being integrated and enabling you make decisions based on data observability.
• Data formats change over time, Data Fusion helps handle data drift with the ability to identify change and customize error handling.

Metadata and modeling

Data Fusion makes it easy to gain insights with metadata:

• You can collect technical, business, and operational metadata for datasets and pipelines and easily discover metadata with a search.
• Data Fusion, provides end-to-end data view to understand the data model, and to profile data, flows, and relationships of datasets.
• It enables exchange of metadata between catalogs and integration with end-user workbenches using REST APIs.

The Data Fusion data lineage feature enables you to understand the flow of your data and how it is prepared for business decisions.

Open, hybrid, and multi-cloud

Data Fusion is cloud-native and powered by CDAP, a 100% open-source framework for building on-premises and cloud data analytics applications . This means you can? deploy and execute integration pipelines in different environments without any changes to suit business needs.?

Data protection

Data Fusion ensures data security in the following ways:

• It provides secure access to on-premises data with private IP.
• It encrypts data at rest by default or with Customer Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK) to control across all user data in supported storage systems.
• It provides data exfiltration protection via VPC Service Controls,? a security perimeter around platform resources.
• You can store sensitive passwords, URLs, and JDBC strings in Cloud KMS, and integrate with external KMS systems.
• It integrates with Cloud DLP to mask, redact, and encrypt data in transit.
