Fivetran builds automated data pipelines that centralize data from disparate sources like Salesforce and Netsuite into cloud-based data warehouses like Amazon Redshift, Snowflake, Google BigQuery, and Microsoft Azure.
Fivetran recently secured US$44 million in series B round funding led by a venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z).

Their tool has standardized schemas and their pre-engineered connectors adjust to schema changes automatically, therefore enabling companies to focus on unlocking insights.

The ready-to-query schemas of Fivetran accelerate analytics as companies can get all data that is needed without any duplication. Besides that, their documented ERDs help companies to monitor what exactly they are working with.
Fivetran’s technology works with modern data infrastructure companies and its automation of data integration process helps companies in getting better-centralized insights. The focus is to empower organizations across the world to harness their data in new ways.
With 150 connectors, Fivetran wants to continue to expand its range of data collection tools and cover more data requirements. The company’s vision is that all companies should have a centralized repository of their data that ‘works’ for them.
