Objective:
A Canadian real estate company sought to centralize dispersed data assets into a unified repository for reporting and analytics. Handling data flows smoothly and efficiently was a priority for a real estate company and hence they turned to AIT Global for an automated solution. We eagerly took on the challenge and provided a robust automation workflow.
Solution:
- Our experts utilized Node.js for web automation and created a script to reliably capture the portal’s CSV (comma-separated values) at regular time intervals.
- With each extract, the script analyses and compares new data against previous iterations to filter only new, unique entries.
- We also set up a way to put this data into a cloud-based platform and made sure everything works smoothly.
- For transparency, we generated an HTML-formatted processing report with each run, compiling automation statistics and conveying success indicators.
- We created monitors to ensure everything runs smoothly and made reports for administrators to see the overall performance and workflow.
Benefits:
- Reliable Automation: Ensured robust, resilient CSV extraction and data processing without manual oversight.
- Optimized Dataflows: The comparison filtration preserves only novel data, avoiding duplicate entries and keeping datasets clean.
- Cloud-based Integration: By leveraging cloud-based API capabilities, we delivered a solution that automatically prepares and loads data into the platform.
- Increased Efficiency: Automating the overall extract-transform-load workflow saved significant time over manual processing.
- Enhanced Reporting: Provided full visibility into run statistics, data summaries, and outcomes.
