Pipeline Types

  • Real-time

    Transform data the instant it arrives. Parse, filter, and enrich streams on-the-fly—turning raw data into immediate insights.

  • Scheduled

    Orchestrate batch transformations precisely when you need them. Aggregate massive datasets, convert logs to actionable metrics, and process data on your timeline.

Pipeline Types

Data Transformation

  • VRL Functions

    Bend data to your will with Vector Remap Language (VRL). Build custom transformations that parse, enrich, and filter your data streams with powerful functions that handle even your most complex logic requirements.

  • Data Parsing

    Discover insights regardless of data format. Transform chaotic logs into structured gold using pre-built parsing functions—making even the most complex data instantly queryable.

Data Transformation

Data Enrichment

  • Enrichment Tables

    Transform raw events into context-rich intelligence using simple CSV lookup tables. Instantly add location data, user details, and critical metadata that turns isolated signals into meaningful patterns.

  • Dynamic Lookups

    Connect your data to the world with real-time API enrichment. Pull in vital external context that elevates your observability data from interesting metrics to business-changing insights.

Data Enrichment

Pipeline Components

  • Function Nodes

    Build data processing workflows with VRL function nodes. Execute custom logic for complex transformations and create reusable components that make your data pipelines more efficient and maintainable.

  • Stream Operations

    Master your data flows with flexible stream operations. Filter, clone, and route streams to multiple destinations—ensuring every bit of data reaches exactly where it needs to go.
