A couple of the contributions we made to @hop.apache.org over the summer: - @openlineage.bsky.social sink - #dbt action to run dbt core operations - A new #linter checks project code quality Other community members have been working hard too, so 2.20.0 (November) will be another packed release.

#HubSpot data in your pipelines, not locked in your #CRM. You can loop through paginated #REST responses in Apache Hop. Or use the Putki #HubSpot Input plugin and make it just another transform. 👉 putki.io/putki/hubspot-input @hop.apache.org @know.bi #apachehop #putki

Pipeline failed at 2:47am. Nobody noticed until next morning, so meeting used bad data. That’s why we built Putki Chat plugin: Slack alerts for failures, warnings, anomalies. Next incident was fixed before work started. 👉https://www.putki.io/

A client needed to rename a #PostgreSQL table used since day one. “Which pipelines/workflows use this table?” Nobody knew. Using the RDBMS Impact transform in Apache Hop, we found 7 references in seconds, 3 would’ve broken silently. 👉 www.putki.io

Most Apache Hop teams still handle DB migrations manually or outside the project. #Flyway solves consistency, but integration is clunky. Putki adds a native #Flyway action for Hop workflows. 👉 www.putki.io/integrations @hop.apache.org
