挑战
Billie.io 是一家总部位于柏林的金融科技初创公司，通过为发票提供即时融资以及外包收款流程和违约风险承保，正在彻底改变企业处理付款的方式。然而，该公司在管理其数据架构方面面临着重大挑战。该公司需要一种解决方案，能够高效且经济高效地处理生产数据库到数据仓库的提取、加载和转换 (ELT) 过程。该公司还需要避免延迟问题或服务级别协议 (SLA) 问题，并防止过早发生转型。此外，该公司希望对事情发生的时间进行细粒度控制，并了解包含管道、其依赖性及其执行的任务。
关于客户
Billie.io 是一家总部位于柏林的金融科技初创公司，正在重塑企业处理支付的方式。通过 Billie，中小企业 (SME) 可以为每张发票获得即时融资，而无需等待 90 天才能收到客户付款。 Billie.io 还外包催收流程和违约风险承保范围，为企业提供全面的财务解决方案。该公司建立在创新速度的基础上，其数据架构与其业务模式一样具有创新性。自 2017 年 2 月成立以来，Billie.io 一直在构建可供数据驱动型企业效仿的原型。
解决方案
为了应对这些挑战，Billie.io 实施了 Apache Airflow，这是一个社区管理的平台，允许复杂的工作流程编排和自动化。该平台使 Billie 的团队能够对事情发生的时间进行细粒度控制，并了解包含管道、其依赖性及其执行的任务。该公司还使用 Fivetran 将数据提取到 Snowflake。 Fivetran 连接器按原样使用，但 Airflow 在其生产数据库到数据仓库的 ELT 过程中至关重要。该公司将每个步骤视为“分段”，然后可以通过 Airflow 动态调度或管理这些步骤。例如，Fivetran 段或“提取”和“加载”可以独立于转换层进行调度和运行。这种方法使公司能够避免延迟问题或 SLA 问题，甚至可以防止过早发生转型。此外，Billie.io 使用 Airflow 和 Fivetran 的 Operators、Sensor 和 Hooks 为企业创建复杂且有价值的工作流程。
