Hello, does meltano support data streaming, or any sort of "push data to meltano" model?
e
Hi @springroll12. What's your use case?
s
We have a realtime stream of data coming from a 3rd party provider that we want to send to an S3 bucket.
e
It's an API?
s
The 3rd party is sending data to our API (currently). Our API then sends data to s3. Is there a way to achieve this with meltano?
e
So it's kinda like a webhook?
s
Sort of, but with authentication
and they submit data directly to the hook and we don't have the ability to pull data if they hit the hook (it's a uni-directional connection)
e
The only way Meltano would support that sort of pattern at the moment would be to act as a middle man between the webhook receiver and loading data into s3. For example, you could send the data to sqs and use tap-amazon-sqs and target-s3.
