What is GlassFlow?

Learn about what is GlassFlow, why GlassFlow and who is GlassFlow for.

GlassFlow offers a fully managed serverless infrastructure to build real-time data applications, deploy, run, and scale them in a production environment.


You can:

Use GlassFlow out-of-the-box with any existing Python library.

Start GlassFlow without a complex initial setup such as creating clusters.

Skip the headache of managing partitions, shards, and workers' setup.

Define your pipeline as code using GlassFlow CLI.

Implement your transformation function using GlassFlow Python SDK

Run your Python code locally for easy development and debugging.

GlassFlow does:

Provides a pure Python and zero infrastructure environment.

Keeps your original data where it is.

Connects live data sources.

Ingests real-time data continuously.

Does real-time data transformation.

Simulates your production workloads.

Deploys your pipeline to production just in seconds.

Delivers auto-scalable serverless event streaming infrastructure.

Why GlassFlow?

GlassFlow's goal is to become the #1 real-time data transformation solution for Python engineers. We believe in building easy-to-use solutions and, in this way, democratizing access to building real-time data pipelines.

GlassFlow Key features

Easy install

GlassFlow allows engineers to integrate it into their projects with minimal effort. This means you can start with GlassFlow by simply installing a Python library without a complex initial setup like creating computing clusters or running JVM. You build a custom data processing pipeline and GlassFlow takes care of auto-deployment. Our platform is built using robust technologies like Kubernetes and NATS and scales to your production workloads.

End-to-end in Python

Build end-to-end solutions entirely in the Python ecosystem. GlassFlow can be used out-of-the-box with any existing Python library (like Pandas, NumPy, Scikit Learn, Flask, TensorFlow, etc.) to connect to hundreds of data sources and use the entire ecosystem of data processing libraries.

Custom functions with real-time API connections

GlassFlow goes beyond basic real-time data processing functionalities by allowing the integration of custom functions with real-time API connections. It makes stream processing simple from adding real-time context to your AI apps to serving ML models.

Pipeline ready in minutes

GlassFlow can get your data pipeline up and running in just 15 minutes. This simplicity and speed capability ensures that data ingestion, as well as publishing and subscribing to data streams, are not only simplified but also accelerated. You dedicate more time to developing sophisticated data transformation logic and less time to set it up.

Build once, use it everywhere

GlassFlow allows Python developers and data engineers to build new data pipelines or modernize existing ones without overwriting the code for batch and stream processing workflow.

Facilitates seamless integration with CI/CD workflow

You can automate the deployment process with the GlassFlow Command Line Interface (CLI). Any updates to data pipelines are smoothly transitioned from development to production environments.


Who is GlassFlow for?

Data Engineers

GlassFlow is specifically designed with Data engineers in mind. Its Python-centric approach ensures that engineers can leverage their existing skills to the fullest, building sophisticated real-time data pipelines without the need to learn new languages or technologies.

Data Teams

GlassFlow is dedicated to simplifying the construction and maintenance of real-time data pipelines. More data professionals can work collaboratively on projects without the need for specialized knowledge in the real-time data processing domain.

Organizations focused on efficiency

GlassFlow empowers your team to construct and manage event-driven data pipelines with ease. Its serverless, production-ready environment means that your team can concentrate on innovation and data transformation, rather than infrastructure management. You will get a data pipeline launch and run with real-time data from day 1.
