CsvPath Framework registers, versions, validates, upgrades, and stages CSV, JSON, XML, Excel, JSONL and DataFrames from data partners before your pipelines break.
If your MFT or REST API drives external data directly into the data lake or database the damage is already done.
CsvPath Framework is the open source way to shift-left data quality. Enforce clear data contracts at the edge with less manual effort, fewer ingestion failures, and more agile development using consistent data preboarding tools you can try in minutes.
Support for data contracts and schemas written in ODCS, XSD, JSON Schema, and CsvPath Validation Language. Or use XPath or JSONPath for rules-based validation. All validation options are embedded in the preboarding workflow of a simple, efficient, open, and standards-based data firewall.
Get FlightPath Data, the open frontend
FlightPath Data is a powerful frontend to CsvPath Framework. Go beyond CsvPath Framework's built-in CLI. Get up and running faster with a purpose-built data contracts, data preboarding development, and data operations console. FlightPath Data gives you all the help and examples you need move quickly.
FlightPath Data is bundled with FlightPath Server, the no-code/low-code automation REST API connecting your existing infrastructure to robust edge data governance.
Available as a free download from the Microsoft Store and the Apple MacOS Store.
The Architecture For Efficient Edge Data Ingestion
CsvPath Framework implements the Collect, Store, Validate Publish architectural pattern. External data ingestion goes faster, is more cost-efficient, and more effective with a Data Preboarding stage.
CsvPath Framework was built to fill the blindspot between the edge and downstream data systems with a simple path to provably correct data. More than observational governance, the Framework enforces data contracts as an edge data firewall. It accepts and/or remediates data when possible, it halts the line when necessary.
The Data Preboarding blindspot is a big deal. Think about it. If even 1 in 30 companies depends existentially on CSV, JSON, XML, or Excel files or JSON streaming data from external data partners, poor edge Data Preboarding is a trillion-dollar problem.
Why roll your own data preboarding tool chain? CsvPath Framework is a purpose-built off-the-shelf solution you can rollout now.
Powerful Validation For Batch Files and Real-time Data
CSV, Excel, NDJSON, and JSONL validation has never been as sophisticated as JSON Schema and XSD — until now. CsvPath Validation Language is simple, easy to integrate, and flexible enough to handle the unexpected. Inspired by Schematron, XPath, and SQL, CsvPath Validation Language brings powerful data validation to tabular and JSON Lines structured data.
CsvPath Framework supports four schema languages: ODCS, JSON Schema, XSD, and CsvPath Validation Language. Working together they are unstoppable. Start here.
Running CsvPath Framework and FlightPath Data can help you build your organization's confidence that your data governance doesn't turn a blind eye to its most unruly data.
