Receive recurring deliveries, check expected files and isolate invalid input before it reaches consumers.
- SFTP / S3
- Flower
- Quarantine / Lake
| Boundary to agree | Acceptance test |
|---|---|
| File naming, completeness and arrival window | Deliver one valid, one incomplete and one duplicate file. Confirm the agreed outcome for each. |
| Source retention and quarantine ownership | Reject a malformed file; correct it and replay under operator control before enabling cleanup. |
02Prepare data as it moves
Decode, filter, aggregate and convert formats near the source, then deliver the result to your analytical platform.
Define schema, required fields, precision and aggregation keys in the flow. Validate transformed output with record counts, business totals and consumer-ready format checks, making data quality part of the delivery.
- CSV / gzip
- Validate → transform
- Parquet
03Connect environments you control
Operate across private networks, clouds and edge nodes with integrated recovery, credential management and retention policies.
Choose where Flower runs and configure access, recovery and delivery policies. Exercise network recovery, credential management and destination reconciliation to establish a repeatable operating process with clear evidence.
