Ensuring Reliable Data for Self-Service Analytics: How Lightup and Dremio Work Better Together

Data lakes, data warehouses, databases, data lakehouses — data is vast, varied, and scattered everywhere in modern enterprise data stacks. Traditional methods of running analytics in these complex environments present ongoing challenges for enterprises due to:

  • Costly and time-consuming data management processes
  • Scarce and expensive data engineering resources
  • Poor-quality data

That’s where Lightup and Dremio come in, providing easy access to no-code Data Quality checks for self-service analytics.

While there are a variety of vendors that provide Data Quality solutions based on specific data sources, there are very few that connect directly to Dremio for Data Quality Monitoring. Connect Lightup directly to Dremio in minutes with a prebuilt connector.

Dremio for Self-Service Analytics

Built on Apache Arrow as the only Open Unified Lakehouse Platform, Dremio’s advancements in data virtualization, cataloging, and query optimization give analysts and data engineers easy access to query any dataset across on-premises and cloud sources, unifying data quickly for self-service analytics.

Regardless of where data is stored — legacy data warehouses, transactional databases, or data lakes — Dremio knows where it is, how to query it, and how to retrieve it for analysis.

Lightup and Dremio integration — Data Quality checks across all connected data sources

While Dremio doesn’t load or store data itself, it operates like a modern data platform, giving analysts a unified system to query any and all connected data sources. The best part? Dremio virtually eliminates data silos and resource-intensive data management tasks such as ETL workflows required to extract, transform, and load data into a single location before running analytics.

Think of Dremio as a unified query layer across all supported data sources without requiring ETL to join datasets for analysis

Lightup and Dremio Integration

Enhancing Dremio’s self-service analytics capabilities, the Lightup integration with Dremio allows analysts and data engineers to write no-code, low-code, and custom SQL Data Quality checks that monitor any dataset across all connected data sources within Dremio.

Simply enable the Lightup connector within the Dremio console and define Data Quality checks on top of any Dremio Virtual Datasets.

Lightup’s integration with Dremio gives you a unified platform for both analytics and data governance, making it easy to trust your data for downstream analysis and reporting.

TL;DR — with this integration, any data source Dremio can query, Lightup can query too
